“Self”, interview with the director Searit Huluf

Searit Huluf is at the 24th Frame Future Film Festival in Bologna, Italy to present "Self", her Pixar Sparkshort film. The director is also giving a Masterclass “Pixar Talk: Self” at the festival. The film, as the director confirmed while presenting it in various occasions, marks several firsts. Among those, it is Pixar’s debut in stop-motion and it’s a short film that holds a personal connection with its author, Huluf. Produced by Eric Rosales, "Self" belongs to Pixar’s acclaimed Sparkshorts program and it depicts a journey of self discovering through the adventure of this wooden doll who desperately wants to fit in. Searit Huluf tells us about the freedom she had to tell a resonating story for her that could honor her Ethiopian heritage.
