Telling the story of a dwindling community transformed by art, Maybe Something Beautiful is a new short film from Chicago Children’s Theatre and the Negaunee Music Institute at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
Inspired by the award-winning book by F. Isabel Campoy and Theresa Howell, illustrated by Rafael López, the video follows young protagonist Mira who one day decides to paste her drawing of a sun on one of the dark walls of an alley, bringing brightness and smiles to her neighbours.
Five CSO musicians will perform a selection of Latin American and South American composers throughout the film. The story is told through puppetry, with Jasmin Cardenas narrating in Spanish, English and ‘Spanglish’.
