Moonshine

‘The story of the race for space, and what happens when the space gets overcrowded.’ (Flora Kerrigan) 

Bombs, rockets, a hammer and sickle, the USA flag and Laika the dog race around the moon in this powerful stop-motion animation depicting the Space Race during the Cold War. Moonshine belies Kerrigan’s political interests and demonstrates the refinement of her skill as an accomplished animator.
