Magic Candies
Whose Voice Do You Want To Hear?
Directed by Daisuke Nishio
Magic Candies is a CGI animated short film produced by TOEI ANIMATION based on two original stories, “Magic Candies” and “I Am a Dog” created by Korean Picture book author Heena Baek, the 2020 laureate of the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award.
“Playing alone isn’t so bad.” The other kids at the park never ask Dong-Dong to play. That’s ok. He’s fine just playing marbles on his own. One day, he buys a bag of colorful candies instead of new marbles. The first time he pops one of them into his mouth, his old sofa starts talking to him! The two share an unexpected conversation before the sweet melts away. As it happens, the people, animals, and objects in Dong-Dong’s life have a lot to say.
