Making its online debut today as a Vimeo Staff Pick, Sonder<\/a><\/em> is a groundbreaking animated short film about a young man\u2019s struggle to overcome a broken heart. Written and directed by Neth Nom<\/a> and produced by Sara K. Sampson under the Soba Productions<\/a> banner, the short has won several awards, screening at major festivals including Bucheon, Edinburgh, SPARK and SIGGRAPH Asia, among others, and recently qualified for Oscar consideration with a seven-day theatrical run in Los Angeles this past September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The film follows Finn, who, in the wake of a broken heart, struggles alone in the woods to keep a small flower alive and undertakes a perilous journey to bring the fading bloom to safety. For years, Finn and Natalie walked the same path. But when their time together comes to an end, Finn is at risk of losing himself, finding himself paralyzed by the fear of moving on. Sonder<\/em> charts Finn\u2019s process of self-discovery as he gathers the strength to forge a new path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
