Swimming With Wings

In this animated documentary, an Israeli girl compares emigrating to the Netherlands to taking a nervous dive into deep water.
An Israeli girl who has emigrated to the Netherlands and is learning to swim compares moving countries to diving into deep water with your clothes on. While we hear her voice talk about tension, missing family and new friends, we see penguins animated using wax crayons against backdrops filmed in black-and-white. An enchanting animated documentary about what home is.
