Anikey create Animated Adventure for the Paul & the Dragon foundation
AniKey studios have produced this animated story to support the efforts of the American Childhood Cancer Organization & Vereniging Ouders Kinderen en Kanker.
The story follows Paul who is feeling sick and needs to go to the hospital. After several tests he is diagnosed with cancer.
He does not understand what is happening to him, and what the medications are doing. He feels scared and alone. His doctor explains to him that the cancer is like a dragon in his body that needs to be fought. As a true hero, young Paul fights the dragon, together with the medications and the love of his family, and wins.
This film is for children with cancer and their families. The film portrays the child with cancer as a hero who has to battle an evil dragon living inside of their body. In this exciting humorous metaphor, children will also learn about problems and issues that can arise when a child has cancer. This visual representation of cancer is intended to initiate conversation about what is happening, and help alleviate the fears the child
may have.
