Solace - Together

This shot of Asja and Hati captures something at the heart of Solace. While the film explores grief, it’s equally about the moments that make love, connection, and ultimately loss so meaningful.

Solace is an independent animated tale exploring grief, animal companionship, and the world between life and death.

Over the past few years, we’ve been building this project with an incredible team of artists, developing a handcrafted visual style, refining our pipeline, and slowly bringing this world to life.

If you’re interested in the creative process behind independent animation, I’d love to share it with you. Join our behind-the-scenes newsletter at https://www.solacetale.com/ for production insights, artwork, and making-of breakdowns.

A huge thank you to everyone on the team whose passion and talent make Solace possible. I’m excited to share more of this journey with you.
