Sandpiper #Short





This week's Irish short is celebrating the legend and one of the founding fathers of Irish animation, Jimmy Murakami.

Jimmy passed away on Sunday 16th February. Best known for directing the feature animation 'When The Wind Blows' (1986), Jimmy also set up Murakami Wolf Studios in Dublin in the early 1990s.

Sandpiper is a short film he made in 2008.
