Glimpse

Synopsis

The animated short, directed by the filmmaking duo of Academy Award winner Benjamin Cleary (Stutterer, Swan Song) and VR creator Michael O’Connor, stars Taron Egerton (Rocketman, Kingsman: The Secret Service) and Lucy Boynton (Sing Street, Bohemian Rhapsody) with an original score by Julianna Barwick (Healing is a Miracle, Will). Glimpse is a highly emotive, visual feast set in the imaginative mind of a heartbroken pandanamed Herbie (voiced by Taron Egerton), who has recently broken up with his deer girlfriend Rice (Lucy Boynton). Herbie is an illustrator and through his art we delve back through the memories of his relationship from the heart-breaking end to the beautiful beginning.
