The Moth Collective: Modern Love

At this point anyone who follows my posts will think I sound like a broken record, but… The Moth Collective does it again! This time for The New York Times and their Modern Love column.

The Moths are no stranger to great work, this being their third stunning long-format animation in 2015 alone. If you haven’t seen them yet, make sure to watch Hias and Planet Under Pressure.

The Moth Collective is a shining example of three individuals going out on their own, fighting the good fight, and making work that is not only amazing but has integrity.

‘A Kiss, Deferred’ is our contribution to the New York Times’ Modern Love column, based on a true story written by Nikolina Kulidžan. The full article can be read here: nytimes.com/2015/08/02/fashion/a-kiss-deferred-by-bosnia-and-herzegovina-civil-war.html?_r=0
