Mythology in Animations by Alexandra Hetmerová

Alexandra Hetmerová – a young Czech director, animator, graphic designer and ilustrator – has created two gorgeous animations inspired by the world of mythology. In her “Mythopolis” (2013, FAMU Production) and the earlier “Swimming Pool” (2010, FAMU Production), you can see how she imagines the life of mythological characters in the modern world, incl. Medusa as the caring mother of her son Mino(taur).

“Mythopolis” (2013, FAMU production) – watch.
