Assembly Travels “Lightyears From Home” With Hospitals United for Sick Kids

Director Matt von Trott and the team at Assembly in Auckland craft an emotionally resonant animated odyssey inspired by the challenges experienced by hospitalized children for the Australian charity Hospitals United for Sick Kids.

From Assembly: “Hospitals United for Sick Kids brings together a national alliance of children’s hospitals, foundations, and pediatric services to fund innovative research, equipment, treatments, services, and other projects to help get kids home from hospital sooner. The organization is the only charity that is for all kids, all diseases, all injuries.

“Their journey back home is unpredictable, full of ups and downs. Like Blip, kids in hospital can also feel light years from home. This campaign will drive support to help them get home to the things they miss.”
