A Bicycle Love Story: Hope Lost and Hope Regained

“(Manquer) Missing: A Bicycle Love Story” is a visually stunning 4-minute animated short film by Matt Daniels and Sean Pecknold. The stop-motion animation recounts a well-known motion picture trope: awkward fellow falls for the love of his life, who is stolen away by a village lout, then abused and neglected by the hooligan, and finally gallantly rescued from the cruel thug. But this wonderfully charming short transcends that commonplace leitmotif through its mixture of unusual, visually dynamic photography and a captivating narrative voice-over. You’ll find it very hard not to fall under the pleasant spell of this beguiling little love story, with its every surprising twist and turn.

This piece presents a number of color photographs, as well as this fascinating animated short film.

Please visit my website to view the photographs, and to watch this irresistible 4-minute animation.
