A Touch of Deceit is one of those lesser-known gems that might not ring a bell at first, but once you see it, it lingers in your mind. Directed by the talented Michel Gagné during his time at Sheridan, it showcases a cute rabbit and a butterfly, but there's this underlying tension that builds throughout. The animation is charming, with a distinct style that hints at Gagné's future work. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to absorb the visuals and themes of trust and betrayal. What I find fascinating is how it plays with the viewer's expectations. The practical effects give it a tactile quality that’s refreshing. It's a short film that speaks volumes without saying much at all.
