The Recess
Directed by Stephen X. Arthur
Portrays a teen identity crisis in the idiom of the modern satiric grotesque, intended to provoke discussion. It deals with discrimination and the problem of social identity, as seen most strongly among adolescents. Facial features were animated by digital 2D warping. Faces also appear to turn sideways in pseudo-3D.
