The Line

Directed by Benedict Tawatao

A young animation student deals with perfectionism in her pursuit of art. Burdened by the pressures of her high standards and fear of being judged, she struggles to finish her animated film as she takes too much time correcting every line she puts in. However, as the deadline comes close, she and her friend, who’s also a perfectionist, but in the field of badminton, had an encounter that would help her approach perfectionism more positively. The film reveals how one can handle perfectionism negatively and positively, illustrating a story of self-acceptance and rediscovering the joy in one’s passion.
