The Glassworker: Trailer Talk

‘The Glassworker’ follows Vincent and his father as they work in the finest glass workshop in the country. But the arrival of an army colonel and his daughter turn their lives upside down. 

While these articles are used to write about an upcoming blockbuster, they can also be used to shine a light on international films and shows, as well as media that can be seen as a breakthrough for a studio or country. And ‘The Glassworker’ is one of those, with this being the first ever hand drawn animated film to come from Pakistan. And it looks incredible.

The animation style is clearly influenced by Japanese juggernaut Studio Ghibli which is a fantastic studio to use as a reference. Considering this is the country’s first film of this type, it makes sense to take inspiration from somewhere and that somewhere being one of the best animated companies in the world. It also makes sense because both utilize the hand drawn technique.

This is another reason why ‘The Glassworker’ caught my attention; in Western countries, hand drawn animation is now a forgotten artform. But this means that other parts of the world can pick up the pencils and keep it alive, something that I am grateful for.

‘The Glassworker’ looks incredible and, with its achievement, should be given more attention. The visuals are gorgeous, and it looks like it will be very emotional because of the overarching war setting. Here’s hoping it gets an international release later this year.
