Content

This story is change from a Chinese folktale. A woman comes to a river to wash clothes at night. She sees the beautiful moon and think about her unhappy life. So she prays to the moon. Then the moon gives the woman a flying blanket and takes her away.

At first, I want to make an animation about run away from the realistic. Now people always have much pressure- work, study, salary, etc.

Sometimes I miss my family, tired of homework. Escape from life for a little while is a useful way for us to reduce pressure. So I make this animation.
