From Mano Animation Studios and director Usman Riaz comes 'The Glassworker', an original hand drawn animated feature film.
A young Vincent and his father Tomas run the finest glass workshop in the country and find their lives upended by an impending war in which they want no part. The arrival in their town of an army colonel and his young, talented, violinist daughter, Alliz, shakes their reality and tests the relationship between father and son.
The love that develops between Vincent and Alliz is challenged constantly by the differing views of their fathers. It is a time when patriotism and social standing are considered more important than free thought and artistic pursuits. It is a time when love is just not relevant.
Featuring the voices of Art Malik, Sacha Dhawan, Anjli Mohindra and Tony Jayawardene.
