I Am a Motif

The film presents three distinct "Motifs" that grapple with their differences and sense of identity. As the music motif succumbs to the urge to dance, the others attempt to understand their place within the narrative. This exploration is set to a Fugue by Bach, which serves as a backdrop for the film's thematic inquiries.

I Am a Motif uses animation to bridge various artistic concepts, creating a dialogue between music, visual arts, and storytelling. This short film, produced by Tokyo University of the Arts, showcases the potential of animation to convey complex ideas in a concise format. Its innovative approach makes it an interesting addition for collectors of animated works.
