Welcome to the penultimate episode of the first series of Animator's Breakfast! On this episode I'm truly honoured to be joined by the incredible and insanely talented Fatma Almheiri, the creator of Emara. I don't have enough positive adjectives to describe Fatma, so I'll just say it's humbling to consider that she has directed a 5 episode web series about an Emirati superhero named Emara. 

Her chosen topic is Treasure Planet, a beautiful and completely underrated Disney Animation. Released in 2002, a similar story to The Iron Giant, poor marketing led to the film's immediate demise. But Treasure Planet has an incredible soul in the story of Jim Hawkins and his relationship with John Silver. The storytelling is delicate and refreshing to dig into. I hope you all enjoy this episode!
