Filled With Water

About This Movie

Filled With Water is an animated gem that really draws you into Anoka's world of emotional turmoil. The visual style is haunting yet beautiful, almost like a watercolor painting that moves. You can feel the weight of her emptiness, contrasted sharply with the brightness of her glowing heart. The pacing is a bit unconventional, which adds to its dreamlike quality. Themes of love versus possession are explored here in a way that feels fresh and poignant. Elka Kerkhofs uses a blend of practical effects, like hand-drawn elements, that gives the film this tactile feel. It’s somewhat introspective, leaving you to ponder long after the credits roll. Definitely a unique piece in the animation genre.
