Anhelo, from the Latin anhelare, is a visual poem that explores the limits between the three-dimensionality of the body and the two-dimensionality of drawings. Dance belongs to physical reality; it exists in a specific place and time. Animation recognizes no such boundaries, allowing us to create worlds that defy the rules of nature.
