Over the weekend MrsDoF and I went to see this year’s Oscar Shorts, a collection of short animated and live-action films. One of the films was Kavi, about a young boy who is enslaved making bricks, and wishes he could go to school. Here’s the trailer:
Kavi (www.KaviTheMovie.com) from Gregg Helvey on Vimeo.
Kavi and his family make bricks for a tyrannical owner who uses the pretext of intractable debt to enslave them all. At the end of the movie, he makes a desperate gamble. I wish they’d put the whole thing up on Vimeo or YouTube or something.
