In a Heartbeat

2017 · 4 min · Animation, Comedy, Drama · Directed by Beth David & Esteban Bravo

A closeted schoolboy's heart literally escapes his body and chases the boy he likes down the hallway, dragging him along with it. Made as a student thesis, crowdfunded by strangers, and watched tens of millions of times within weeks of release.
