ABOUT

In this internationally award-winning short film, experience a breathtaking fairytale that spans across three countries. When a fair and lovely princess, living in a kingdom of secrets and mistrust, discovers that her nation’s foreign “enemies” are not so different from herself, she will have to make a bold choice in order to prove that “what makes us all different is not as important as what makes us all the same.”

Both whimsical and deeply emotional, this short was a Student Academy Awards finalist. It also screened at the Director’s Guild of America and at a number of prestigious festivals, including international festivals in Tokyo, Japan and Jaipur, India. From the hearts of passionate, emerging filmmakers, “Two Paper Nightingales” is truly an elevated and radiant adventure. Stop by the 'Meet the Team' section to meet the individuals who worked on "Two Paper Nightingales!"
