How do we remember those who have passed on before us? Such is the question of this short animated film, which tells the story of two Prussian brothers, Vinko and Schanno Franz, who brought joy and music to life with their instruments. The short film that asserts the need to tell the histories of those who can’t tell it themselves, and a demand to not forget them.
