I've been trying to make sense of the story thats in my head, so here it is:
Story:
  • Slow build up, telling the story of his father, he's alone, this is the reality. Close up camera angles on his expression, sighing, eye movements.
  • Books come to life, the stories bring out a character in him.
  • He tells a story which animates him, books come to life.
  • Relates his grief through stories, his emotions become animated.

In reality he is sunken into his chair, part of the chair, looks like he is growing out of it or has become part of it with time. Appearance would suggest that he will never be able to get out of this chair again and is resigned to this fact.

Suggestion that when he tells the stories the sprightly librarian is in his mind, it is his spirit coming to life with the story, himself rememberin the excitment and life in books.
