This is a beautiful little piece that makes me want to pick up and go wander the world some more. From BraveNewTraveler.com, “The story of a cupcake who dreams of the open sea…and finds love and wisdom as a result.”
Hot off the 2009 SXSW film fesival, “Sweet Deams” by Kirsten Lepore was just named for a Special Jury Award.
The film follows the sugar coated journey of a cupcake who longs to head out on the open sea. When he finally scrapes together the courage to set out, it isn’t long before he is marooned on a lone island.
From there… I won’t spoil the ending for you.
But the film highlights a number of timely themes of travel: the excitement of the journey, the loves we meet abroad, and the knowledge and experience we bring with us when we return home.
