Archival footage from a children's science film is digitally stylized in a poignant portrayal of innocence and power, care and feeding, curiosity and control, prodding and pinching, science and sensitivity, of small things with big implications, of the shifting sensibilities of right and wrong over time and in the best intentions of any given moment, PRELUDE is a digital nostalgia of our tactile relationship with nature and the world and the timeless sweetness and unintended cruelties of loving things.
