Limonek i Bezia
Lemon and Berry
Ilenia Cotardo, Piotr Ficner
Two hummingbird siblings find an egg while playing on the beach. Could it be a dinosaur egg maybe? The two research and experiment to find out how to help the creature in the egg grow and hatch. They firmly believe that new discoveries are possible and are rewarded with a surprise. The bright and colourful world of this stop-motion film, created entirely using paper, is so vivid that it truly begs you to touch and play along.
