René Laloux was born in Paris in 1929, and studied painting before working in a psychiatric institution, and making his first short animated films with the interns there. He made three full-length animated films later in his life with varying degrees of recognition, collaborating with some of the most gifted and challenging artists of his generation. All three of his films share key themes: the difficulties of communication; the dangers of acquiring power without understanding; and the inability of humanity to see its place within an ecosystem. When you watch a Laloux film you are not being asked to admire the skill of the animators, but to engage with concepts that could not be represented in any other way (by Aliya Whiteley).
