Short animated film Sun Dancer
A magnificent and beautiful prince, rising with the dawn, lives in a palace amidst luxury and plenty. But the illusion of his grandeur shatters when the truth about the purpose of his existence is revealed.
Miraculously saved, he loses his perfect appearance and his belief in his chosen status. However, falling from the heights of his ambitions is not the end of the journey. It is the acquisition of substance and the first step onto solid ground—the beginning of a new life.
