Asthma Tech Excerpt

This is an excerpt of my NFB film Asthma Tech. Watch the full film at the NFB website: http://www.nfb.ca/film/asthma_tech

Filmmaker Jonathan Ng turns the notion of otherness on its head in his semi-autobiographical animated short about young, whimsical, asthmatic Winston. As a result of his illness, Winston is unable to participate in the everyday activities of his peers and classmates. But thanks to his artistic ability and one particularly rainy afternoon, Winston learns that his imagination has the power to bridge gaps, transform and empower. Part of the Talespinners 2 collection.
