Inspired by the words of Wendat poet Huwennuwanenhs (Louis-Karl Picard-Sioui), The Cloven Sky is an interpretation of the knowledge found at the core of the Canadian First Nation’s understanding of the Universe. The animated short takes along the viewer on a journey through time to the first moments of Creation. We follow the principal archetypes of the Wendat’s cosmogony, from the Sky Woman’s fall to the tragic fate of her warmongering sons, from Little Turtle, Toad and Crow to the Great Turtle, all stories bound to the never ending cycles of life. The Cloven Sky It is an open door on Man’s universal ancestry, a path towards our artistic and scientific heritage, and a source of reflexion encouraging a new beginning.
