Written, directed and animated by Vilma Linnea Olsson, ‘Return to Sender’ is a partially animated drama film that explores the unforgotten memories of a dementia-stricken old man. The short centers around his composition of one final letter (to a special someone), intertwined with his life-long correspondents that have shaped the man he has become today. Erling Alf Olsson portrays the central character in an off-screen voice only performance. An endearing watch upheld by its elegant hand-drawn artistry.

The 8-minute short, which is a mix of live action drama and 2D animation, opens with the protagonist at his desk (filmed in POV) revealing the kept letters from his past – going back as far as his adventurous childhood encounters. Highly skilled craftmanship from Olsson conveys the narrative through splendid animative artistry which beautifully showcase the recollections.
