Throughout the centuries dreams have been to many cultures around the world the images that speak of the future. In modern times dreams were seen as a connection to the unconscious. The character is pursuing the ultimate experience of freedom and glory but when he reaches the sun, his wings begin to melt and he falls into reality. Copycat: Anglo-American. 1. Someone who imitates or copies (style, dress, ideas, etc.) another person. 2. A type of crime committed by someone who copies or mimics the methods of another. This project rather than simply attempting to copy, instead pays tribute to cinema in general because there are direct as well as indirect references to particular cult film scenes and characters. I take these elements and make something new. To do so I use an old school film technique: live stop motion. These are the films I directly reference: 1) F. Lang: ''M'' (1931), 2) S. Tsukamoto: ''Tetsuo'' (1989), 3) Maya Deren ''Meshes of the Afternoon'' (1943), 4) Leo Corbucci: D'Jango (1966), 5) CT Dreyer: 'Vampyr ''(1932).
