| DIRECTOR´S STATEMENT
Hi, I am Martin. I do a stop motion animation because i like working manually. I also like to combine different animation techniques. I always wanted to do films for adults, but both of my previous films somehow ended up for children audience. Topic of this lm also comes from my own childhood, when we used to travel to summer holiday every year with my parents and brother. Before the holiday, we were allways full of expectations, and imagined having the best time ever. But usually, as soon as we arrived at destination, the realiy was completely different. The hotel didn´t look as the one in catalogue, the swimming pool was either too small, over-crowded or without the water, the view from the balcony wasn´t the sea, but the opposite brick wall. And so we get angry, we started to argue and sometimes even split. But usually soon we realized that we miss each other. We all met again and usually found some funny activity that we enjoy all together. And vacation was not that bad anymore..
