Dream Flight

About This Movie

Dream Flight is this intriguing piece of animation from '82 that offers a unique exploration of escapism. The story follows a creature on another planet, dreaming of flight and journeying to Earth. What stands out is the way it captures the essence of different places like Paris and New York, while also contrasting them with serene natural elements—ocean waves, towering trees, and the flitting of birds. It's got an atmospheric quality that's hard to pin down, almost ethereal, and the pacing allows you to really soak in the visuals. The animation style has a certain charm, perhaps a bit rough around the edges, but it adds to the dreamlike experience. Overall, it's an interesting take on themes of longing and freedom.
