In the new Song of the Sea, US trailer, director Tomm Moore gives us more intriguing glimpses into the world of the Selkies. Based on an Irish legend about the existence of seal children, it follows a brother and sisters journey around this folklore steeped country to find their way back to the sea. The style and animation is just mesmerising. You can see through every nuance that the people behind this are truly passionate about what they are trying to achieve as Tomm Moore explains.
“This film has been a labor of love for so many of our crew for the past few years, I think their passion and commitment can be seen even in this short clip.” (source animationmagazine.net)

Like the success of Moore's and Cartoon Saloon's previous film The Secret of Kells, Song of the Sea is also Oscar nominated and has won major awards throughout the festival season. I haven't been able to catch it yet but oh boy am I excited.
