A young girl’s life is forever changed when a fleeting moment of wonder— a swan taking flight —awakens her first spark of creativity. Moved to share the beauty she perceives, she begins to explore her artistic voice but soon finds herself grappling with the shadow of self-doubt. This quiet yet transformative journey captures the fragile balance between inspiration and uncertainty at the heart of every creative spirit.
Inspired by an excerpt from Patti Smith’s memoir Just Kids, Swans is a poetic journey into the origins of creativity, revealing how a single moment can transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.
