Director’s statement
In the most important moment of the story, the girl and the boy give life to a unique event that will transform all the diamonds thus nullifying the entire economic system of the world of Riamise. Battles between criminal clans suddenly no longer make sense and nature come back to life. This film has an important and urgent message to convey about doing the right choices for the environment and for society. Like Ibrido studio, we used to go to schools with our projects talking about the fight against crime and we saw that it is a fundamental theme for the young people of our country (and not only). Therefore we have chosen a language close to this target audience, with a dynamic 2D animation style, a story written by two young italian cartoonists and a soundtrack halfway between rap and tribal music with the collaboration of famous artists.
