Guided by the persistent sound of a dripping water droplet, it travels through landscapes made of sand, paper, stone and iron.\u00a0After overcoming numerous obstacles and dangers, it finally reaches its destination \u2013 in a tragic way.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Without using dialogue, QUEST tells a story that is both simple and universal, exploring hope, longing and the relentless pursuit of a goal. Its symbolic visual language and clear storytelling make the film accessible across languages and cultures while leaving room for a wide range of interpretations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The film was produced between 1992 and 1996 in the Animation Department of the Kassel Academy of Art. It was directed by Tyron Montgomery. The story was developed by Thomas Stellmach, who also produced and animated the film.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In 1997, QUEST received the Oscar<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> for Best Animated Short Film and remains one of the most internationally successful German animated short films.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; el_id=&#8221;ts_quest-film-profile&#8221; z_index=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;ts_portfolioRow&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Film Profile&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1783627330243{border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-color: #eaeaea !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<strong>Themes<\/strong><br \/>\nSearch for Meaning \u00b7 Hope \u00b7 Humanity and the Environment \u00b7 Survival<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mood &amp; Impact<\/strong><br \/>\ncaptivating \u00b7 unsettling \u00b7 thought-provoking<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kind of Film<\/strong><br \/>\nTragedy \u00b7 Fantasy Film \u00b7 Allegory[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; el_id=&#8221;ts_quest-film-excerpt&#8221; z_index=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1784042761721{margin-bottom: 32px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;ts_portfolioRow&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Film Excerpt&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1784042751778{border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-color: #eaeaea !important;}&#8221;][vc_raw_html css=&#8221;&#8221;]JTVCdHNfdmlkZW8lNUQlMEFwcm92aWRlciUzRCUyMnZpbWVvJTIyJTBBdmlkZW9faWQlM0QlMjI3NzcyNTkyNyUyMiUwQXZpZGVvX2hhc2glM0QlMjIlMjIlMEFzdGFydCUzRCUyMjAlMjIlMEF2aWRlb190aXRsZSUzRCUyMlFVRVNUJTIyJTBBdmlkZW9fcmF0aW8lM0QlMjIxNiUyRjklMjIlMEFwcmV2aWV3X3JhdGlvJTNEJTIyJTIyJTBBaW1hZ2UlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnN0ZWxsbWFjaC5jb20lMkZ3cC1jb250ZW50JTJGdXBsb2FkcyUyRjIwMjYlMkYwOCUyRlF1ZXN0LVN0b25ld29ybGQtaGl0LXdpdGgtcm9jay05NjB4NTQwLTEud2VicCUyMiUwQWltYWdlX21vYmlsZSUzRCUyMiUyMiUwQWFsdCUzRCUyMmZpbG0lMjBzY2VuZSUyMGZyb20lMjBRVUVTVCUyMiUwQWxhYmVsJTNEJTIycGxheSUyMFFVRVNUJTIyJTBBd2lkdGglM0QlMjI5NjAlMjIlMEFoZWlnaHQlM0QlMjI1NDAlMjIlMEElNUIlMkZ0c192aWRlbyU1RA==[\/vc_raw_html][vc_empty_space]<a  itemprop=\"url\" href=\"#ts_quest-contact-form\" target=\"_self\" data-hover-border-color=\"#9bfff1\" class=\"qbutton  enlarge\" style=\"color: #ffffff; background-color:#1abc9c;\">Request a screener<\/a>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1784042607985{margin-top: 6px !important;}&#8221;](for programmers)[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; el_id=&#8221;ts_quest-audience-reactions&#8221; z_index=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1784041527921{margin-bottom: 32px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;ts_portfolioRow&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Audience Reactions&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1783770305544{border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-color: #eaeaea !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]&#8221;Fantastic work.
