“The Cat Piano” is an award-winning 8-minute animated short film directed by Australian filmmakers Eddie White and Ari Gibson, featuring narration by the iconic Australian musician Nick Cave. The film is a remarkable animation, a visual marvel that’s a perfectly executed narrative, seamlessly coalescing its gothic influences into a hypnotically sinister aesthetic that is never at odds with itself. “The Cat Piano” was named last week as one of 10 films to advance in the Animated Short Films category for the 82nd Annual Academy Awards.The story opens in a city of musically talented singing cats, where a lonely beat poet falls for the call of a beautiful musical siren. However, a mysteriously dark and evil human soon emerges and begins kidnapping the town’s singing cats to imprison them inside of a cat piano, intent on carrying out his depraved musical plans to perform a twisted feline symphony. At that point, the poet realizes that he must save his muse and put an end to the nefarious tune that threatens to destroy the entire city.
This piece presents a number of dramatically styled illustrations from the film, as well as the superlative, exquisitely refined animated short film, “The Cat Piano.”
