Video: The Missing Scarf


"The Missing Scarf" Written and Directed by Eoin Duffy

Narrated with surprising passion by George Takei, "The Missing Scarf" is a dark animated comedy masquerading as a kid-friendly morality tale.  It's an examination of the emotional aftermath of loss.  Beginning in the tone of a child’s storybook reading, the film lulls viewers into a false sense of complacency.  When it finally opens up with the philosophy, the sudden shift in topic lands like a punch to the stomach.  Yes, it’s cute and even a little bit cheeky, but it's also dark.
"A black comedy exploring some of life’s common fears: fear of the unknown, of failure, rejection and finally the fear of death. Narrated by George Takei."
