Vasilis Kyriatsoulis is an independent filmmaker and stop-motion animator whose work transforms the absurd into the deeply poignant. Driven by the core belief that profound human tragedy can be expressed through the most unsuspecting subjects—even a humble gummy bear—Kyriatsoulis crafts cinematic worlds where dark whimsy meets existential weight.

Deeply influenced by the surreal landscapes of his own subconscious, Kyriatsoulis translates his vivid dreams directly onto the screen. His creative process is an exercise in pure discipline and perseverance; mastering the painstaking art of stop-motion animation entirely on his own, he wrestled through years of intense self-doubt to bring his vision to life frame by single frame.

Defined by a dark, dreamlike aesthetic, his storytelling blends melancholic visual artistry with underlying philosophical meaning, establishing him as a distinct, uncompromising auteur in the world of independent animation.
