The 35th Annual Student Academy Awards were handed out last Saturday, and our favorite little science fiction short, Simulacra, got the Silver Medal for animation. The filmmaker Tatchapon Lertwirojkul is attending the New York School of Visual Arts and has a background in architecture, which is apparent in his amazing attention to detail in the landscape of his future world. Simulacra is about a sweet silver robot on a mission to save a little flower in an industrial future world, with a twist.
