Becoming 2018

Synopsis:

This minimalist six-minute film looks at the creation of animal life through video and time-lapse footage of an embryo’s development – a process universal to all animals, including people. The film follows, in microscopic detail, the development of an alpine newt in its translucent egg all the way from first cell division to moment of hatching.
