Running time: 128 mins

Sheila Graber was born in South Shields, Tyne & Wear in 1940. Trained in Fine Art and Education, she began animating just for fun in 1970. Ten years later the hobby turned into a profession as she gave up her post as Head of Creative Studies at a large comprehensive school to pursue animation full time.

From pastel to pixel, Sheila has produced over 100 films from her home-based studio, covering a wide range of subjects. In this unique collection Sheila takes us through some of the best, carefully curated into four key sections: Northern Roots, Art History, Animals and Nature, and a lifelong love and inspiration - cats.
