Rehy Fox

About This Movie

Rehy Fox is a unique piece of animation that takes a folktale from the Loop Head peninsula and turns it into something visually striking. The entire narrative unfolds through sand drawings, which gives it this organic, ephemeral quality—there’s a rawness to it that’s quite different from polished animations. Marty Keane’s narration adds a haunting atmosphere, pulling you into the world of the trickster fox. The pacing is deliberate, allowing each frame to breathe, almost like an old-world storytelling session. It leans heavily into themes of cunning and nature, exploring the relationship between the trickster and its surroundings. There’s something almost meditative about watching the sand transform into art, making it a distinctive experience in the animation landscape.
