Visual pitch materials for a short, animated film during my final semester at Seneca.

The story focuses on a small bookstore in a little French town and the intergenerational family that runs it. The viewer is witness to the life of a girl and her grandmother, who both live in the apartment above the family business. This little bookstore has been in the family for generations and has always been a bit of a neighborhood hub. Life plods on as we follow the lives of these two characters, and their beloved cat, as the
seasons change more rapidly each year. We come to accept the hard fact that time waits for no one.
