About This Movie

Seat 26D is a fascinating blend of animation and documentary that really digs into the psyche of trauma. The film reconstructs the memory of a plane crash through a unique mix of paper scale models and digital animation, alongside live action. It captures that haunting early morning vibe from December 27, 1991, as we follow young Sandro’s experience. The pacing is a bit introspective, allowing you to sit with his memories. The practical effects are striking—there's something about the tactile quality of paper models that adds a rawness to the narrative. It’s a personal exploration of fear and survival, making it distinctive in the way it treats memory and trauma, rather than just retelling a crash story.
