Immersion emergence

A tale of doomed love, the story of Sohni and Mahiwal is one of the worlds classic tragic love stories. Told in cut-out animation and inspired by Arpana Caur’s painting “Immersion, Emergence”, the film was made by year 8 pupils at Titus Salt School, Bradford as part of the UK’s National Media Museum Anim8ed project with animator David Bunting.

The Anim8ed project enables teachers and pupils in primary and secondary schools to make the most of the creativity, fun and empowerment of animation in the classroom whilst bringing museum collections to life. Supported by DCMS and DCSF through the Strategic Commissioning programme.
