Olivia & The Clouds
April 22 @ 6:30 PM PDT

A poetic and visually mesmerizing exploration of love, memory, and the fluidity of perception, Tomás Pichardo Espaillant’s experimental debut weaves together stop-motion animation, graphic sketching, and Claymation to deconstruct intimacy and the way we remember it. The film follows two couples who recount their relationships, their stories revealing how their experiences and memories differ in unexpected ways. As perspectives shift, this animated feature from the Dominican Republic questions how we construct narratives and how love, longing, desire, and personal truth shape our recollections. Beyond its compelling themes, the film is a sensory experience, blending live-action landscapes with striking 2D animation, surreal imagery, and an evocative soundscape. With collapsed timelines and abstract representations of yearning and loss, Olivia & the Clouds offers a dreamlike, immersive journey into the fragile nature of human connection.
