F5 is a cutting-edge Festival inspired and planned by Motionographer, one of the most reputed blogs on filmmaking, design, animation, motion graphics. F5 invited us, along with 11 more studios and directors to create a short film on happiness to be screened during the festival. Our inspiration took us by the hand and led us to Mahahula. When we where asked to make a video about happiness, we decided that we should take it from the very beginning, when it first appeared in the world. Happiness is a very serious matter, definitely worthy of an awesome deity like Mahahula, an ancient gigantic infant rodent born from an alien space travelling seed that crash-landed on primordial earth. We wanted to depict happiness in all its glorious complexity: obscure, hard to find, huge and colorful. Is it more of a constant personal pursuit or is it a fortunate offering by others? Mahahula came about with the sole purpose of spreading joy to the world, only there was no one around to hear her say so, as this was a long-long time ago. As we speak, she might or might not still be around warming our hearts for eternity.
