3D Animated Short Film Territory Selected for The NGO International Film Festival
Fantastime Entertainment’s 3D animated short film “
Territory” has achieved a significant milestone, securing a spot in The NGO International Film Festival. Directed remotely by Mehdi Yazdani from New Zealand, “Territory” is an impactful film that sheds light on global warming and the consequences of human selfishness. The film tells the story of two polar bears struggling for survival on a shrinking iceberg, representing humans’ ongoing conflicts even in the face of environmental catastrophe.
A Powerful Allegory on Global Warming and Human Conflict
“Territory” vividly illustrates the devastating effects of climate change through the eyes of two polar bears forced to roam the open sea due to the melting of their natural habitat. As they come across a seemingly viable iceberg, tensions rise, leading to a battle over territory. This struggle ultimately causes the destruction of their fragile sanctuary. The film’s narrative serves as a stark reminder of human behavior, with the polar bears symbolizing nations and individuals who prioritize territorial disputes over collaborative solutions, despite the planet’s impending ecological crisis.
The film’s slogan,
“People fight for the territory while the whole planet is sinking into disasters,” emphasizes the dire consequences of global environmental changes and human conflicts.
