Shortly after the loss of her husband, Jaqueline is visited by her 8-year-old grandson. Past, present, and future collide as they travel together through music and art. "NONO" is an animated film inspired by the true story of Jacqueline Florent and her grandson (me) Talain. Jacqueline is grieving the recent death of her husband, renowned painter Nubar (NONO), and Talain is an eight-year-old boy in a strange new country. Unable to communicate, they long to connect. Fortunately, hidden within several of NONO’s paintings are portals to realms unbothered by logics of language and time. Accompanied by their love of music, grandmother and grandson voyage through distant dimensions of history, healing, resonance, and restoration, ultimately uncovering the science behind their shared, special gift.
