St Kilda Film Festival
The City of Port Phillip

Tortoise

Observed by an elderly figure, a child faces a moment of quiet significance when they encounter a tortoise on its back. A hand-drawn animated watercolour, the film transforms a fleeting encounter into a reflection on vulnerability and how we carry it.
