Aurora (Trailer)

An Aqueous Solution is bleak and apparently grim, but within its bleakness is an assertive statement on self-determination and the fundamental need for both dark and light.

This is the first professional film by Jo Meuris and it was made for Hothouse 1, the NFB’s program for emerging filmmakers, whose central theme was “Water and Our Relationship to It.”

Directed by Jo Meuris - 2003 | 1 min

Meena hates books even though her parents love to read. Books are everywhere in Meena's house--in cupboards, drawers, and even piled up on the stairs. Still, she refuses to even open one up. But when her cat Max accidentally knocks down a huge stack, pandemonium ensues and nothing is ever the same again. Animated adaptation of the children's book by Manjusha Pawagi.
