Nominee for Best Animated Short Film
If her East-German upbringing has taught Julia anything, it's how to be a maker. She loves creating things, no matter the process, and bringing them to live through stop motion animation. With a soft spot for the absurd and surrealist, she's interested in stories around the malleability of memories and the divide between what we do and don't say.
