Charming, handmade stop-motion shorts created by filmmaker Michel Gondry for his long-distance daughter, based entirely on the imaginative titles and story prompts she gives him every evening.

Maya and her Dad, Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), live in two different countries. To stay in touch, her Dad says to her every evening, “Maya, give me a title”.

Based on her answer, he creates a short, animated reply in which Maya is the heroine. Gondry brings to life a poetic and amusing journey that will have the little ones dreaming… and the grown-ups smiling.

Fantastical animation sees Gondry return to the barest of essentials in a creation that serves as a love letter to animation, filmmaking, parenting, and storytelling.

"Gondry expands his eclectic filmography with this rejuvenating fantasia." - The Hollywood Reporter
