Arco was recently nominated for Best Animated Feature at the 98th Academy Awards. We are joined by the film’s director, Ugo Bienvenu, to discuss his creative process and collaboration with his animation studio in developing the project. The story follows a girl who witnesses a mysterious boy in a rainbow suit fall from the sky in 2075. He comes from an idyllic far future where time travel is possible. She shelters him and will do whatever it takes to help him return to his time. Currently in wide release, the film is distributed by NEON.
