'David and Don pitched the song just right. The only brief they got from me was that it should be about belonging, and they came up with this perfectly poignant gem which sparked so many ideas in me for the animation.'

“Buena onda”! Good vibes at the Giffoni Experience festival in the south of Italy 🇮🇹 🎥 Grazie mille to the organisers for selecting Kensuke’s Kingdom in the age 10+ category, awarding it the ACEA special award and above all, to our liveliest audience to date - 700+ kids aged between 10 to 13. We were blown away by the intelligent and insightful questions after the two screenings and even received a drawing of producer Camilla Deakin and development producer Vanessa Wheeler from one young audience member. #giffoni #giffonifilmfestival #kensukeskingdom
