Marceau Nakayama m'a fait parvenir Wildheart, joli mini court métrage qu'il a réalisé au sein de son studio indé Keytales.

Si ce studio est installé en France, son ADN est lui international, puisque Marceau est japonais d'origine, qu'il a co-fondé cette structure avec Matteo Paolini, et que les artistes avec qui ils travaillent proviennent de tous les continents.

Et cette vidéo se veut être la première d'une série de mini films pour un projet pensé idéalement comme un long métrage.

The bond between two street living kids is tested as they search for a sense of family.
Six year old orphan Kenta and his ten year old friend Makoto team up to search for Kenta's mother, but their journey becomes a test of their extraordinary bond when they discover that the reunion may come at a cost.

Welcome to Wildheart, our animated film project focusing on childhood, family, and friendship. Our ultimate goal for Wildheart is to create a feature-length film, but we're starting this journey with a set of short films, each a foundational piece that contributes to a greater narrative.

- A Time Capsule -

Wildheart takes you back to a fictional world inspired by the 60s, an era brimming with innovation. Picture the first Tokyo Olympics, Japan's pioneering bullet train, the introduction of color TVs, and a world of new toys.

- Exploring Family Dynamics -

At the core of Wildheart is the theme of 'family' during this era of transformation. The 60s redefined family ties against a backdrop of societal shifts. Our story captures the essence of these changes, offering a more subdued yet meaningful reflection on the decade.
