Love itself is a long journey if you use it properly. Red is the story that will elevate the youth in a way to make them think about their futures and how they want to share it with someone, if they wish to do so. A lot of people today don’t last very long in relationships, especially the generation I live in today. But, Red is the story that can inspire people to love each other through the best times and the worst.
The 24-minute animation opens with Red and Herman first locking eyes on each other in the classroom. After a year of friendship, Red embarks on their first kiss – sparking a new chapter in their love story. The narrative follows their adolescent courtship, with high school prom and subsequent graduation. When Red is accepted into an overseas theatre program, their love-story dwindles into a circumstantial break-up. A touching story of love, heart-break and hope.
