The Lost Thing

A short film for those with more important things to pay attention to

While out collecting bottle tops at the beach, a boy discovers an enormous, bizarre and lonely creature that nobody else appears to notice. Feeling a sorry for it, he decides to find a home for this new friend, even as others warn that ‘some things don't belong anywhere’. But is this really true? Can a thing be just plain lost?

A modern day parable for all ages, adapted from the internationally acclaimed picture book by Shaun Tan, The Lost Thing is an award winning film that invites multiple interpretations and repeated viewing.
