Short film research: Les chaussures de Louis ( Louis's shoes ) ( Drama/coming of age/family )
The translation is Louis's shoes. It follows an autistic schoolboy named Louis, no older than maybe 12. He describes his experience at school and how he differs from those around him, particularly in his shoes and his routine regarding them. It is animated, unlike the other films I studied, and is the only one that I've seen that could be considered family friendly, it's themes of distress being sympathetic rather than uncomfortable for a young audience. It relies heavily on narration all throughout, because Louis himself doesn't speak at all. Music has notable instruments and is twinkly for lack of better description of it's sound. It is a bit like Lucia, but its used more, sounding more whimsical and almost ethereal. It utilizes the most creative angles and shots I've seen, some following normal conventions in film, like close ups on important things or Louis's face to show emotion, but there are also fantastical elements as visual representations of Louis...
