(Introduction)
03
Scribbles Between Us is a 3-minute coming-of-age short that explores childhood friendship at the edge of change. Centered on Munin (9) and Rue (10) living in the countryside, the film captures the fragile, imaginative world the two girls have built together through drawing. When their drawings begin to animate, the magic feels like an extension of their bond. But as the reality of Rue’s impending move sets in, their once playful creations begin to distort, mirroring the confusion, resistance, and quiet grief they struggle to express. The film uses minimal to no dialogue, relying on visual storytelling where hand-drawn animations interact with the physical world shifting in tone from whimsical to unstable. The evolving scribbles become emotional artifacts, reflecting how children process separation: indirectly, imaginatively, and intensely. In its final moments, the film returns to stillness.
