    Michaël Dudok de Wit on gratitude and ox herding (Updated)

    THE ULTIMATE AUTEUR Director and Artist Michaël Dudok de Wit | This is a dreamy chat with the renowned director of Oscar winning short film Father and Daughter and Oscar nom’d The Red Turtle, a collaboration with Studio Ghibli. Michaël creates visual capsules of awe and pathos and wonder, all with (mostly) ink and paper.  A legend. We talk about his decades of work, gratitude, phenomenon, nature, and what we can all learn from ox herding. There's so much noise these days, we’re pulled away from things that require time to understand, time to unearth. Things that make life wondrous. These films are a small antidote.  Watch Michaël’s OSCAR winning short Father and Daughter Watch Michaël’s OSCAR nom’d short The Monk and the Fish Watch Michaël’s OSCAR nom’d feature The Red Turtle Follow Open Studios on Instagram and me, house of k, on Substack Mentioned on the show –Studio Ghibli –The Ox Fable  –The Work of Art by Adam Moss –It Was Just An Accident trailer from Jafar Panahi
