With his first short film, the animated “Yùl and the Snake,” Gabriel Harel won Europe’s Cartoon d’Or for the continent’s best animated short film, given at the 2016 Cartoon Forum in Toulouse. Now, …
Harel used “O Rohmero” as a working title for his second work – underscoring its highly disparate inspirations, running from George A. Romero to Eric Rohmer. Harel is represented by Paris-based talent agency Zelig.The first inspiration to make “The Night of the Plastic Bags” was a phone call with my older sister. At the time, I wanted to make a fantasy/horror animation film with a monster.
So the film is near inspired by a real event… I think one of its main virtues is the originality with which you weave an urgent story regarding ecological and maternity issues with a thriller-apocalyptic plot… The short is about the invasion of plastic and plastic waste. The plastic bag symbolizes plastic waste in its more extraordinary qualities – it is very light and resilient, it has a very long life expectancy and can swim, fly… So I started imagining plastic bags as a living animal species. And what fascinates me is that they imitate jellyfish and that they could also be the last living beings on earth.
