has returned to the director’s chair for “The Day I Became a Bird.”
Ruhemann’s previous short, “The Lost Thing,” brought him an Academy Award in 2011, shared with Shaun Tan. “The Day I Became a Bird,” produced by Passion Pictures with the support from Epic MegaGrants, will be “teased” at Annecy before embarking on a festival run. “There is this constant tension between trying to be commercial and trying to make art. It has always been like this in my career. After I made ‘The Lost Thing,’ I had to put my producer’s hat on and that took me away for a long time. But suddenly, a little space opened up and I thought I was ready.”
“We keep hitting all these big bumps in our world. There’s war in Ukraine, we have been through the pandemic, we are now in recession and have to deal with a refugee crisis, climate crisis and some absurd politics in our country. I have been under a fair bit of pressure to commercialize our studio and hit certain targets, but I don’t think companies can succeed unless they have a vision,” he observes.
