The only solace Daal, Baython, Quinn, and Keena find is in the myths of their planet, in particular Screecher’s Reach, where a terrifying ghost is believed to reside. Already the short film has set up the hard life these characters have, as the real-life inspiration of places like this were cruel and inhumane. With its contribution to Star Wars: Visions Volume 2, entitled “Screecher’s Reach,” not only does the studio have perhaps one of the most intense entries, but it has introduced horror to on-screen Star Wars.Ĭartoon Saloon has also injected its Irish personality into the Star Wars universe with “Screecher’s Reach.” The workhouse that Daal and her friends hail from is a clear allusion to the many workhouses that children were sent to back in the 19th century.
Cartoon Saloon is known for tackling heady subjects with its stories, and I would actually compare them to the works of Don Bluth and his team. Cartoon Saloon is an incredibly talented studio that has told many incredible stories: The Breadwinner and Wolfwalkers are two notable examples. When I saw the announcement trailer, I was so excited.
Star Wars: Visions has returned with nine new episodes with nine new studios, and one of those studios is Cartoon Saloon, based in Ireland. This article contains spoilers for Star Wars: Visions Volume 2 episode 2.
