Mr Madila

Royal College of Art Graduation Film 2015

“Everything is mostly nothing. Look closely and you can see all the little bits and pieces, and all the gaps in-between.”

Mr Madila or The Colour of Nothing documents a series of conversations between the film-maker and a gifted spiritual healer, exploring the inner mind, the fabric of the universe, and the nature of reality itself, through the sacred art of animation. Oooooooh.
