Description:
Dragon Gate is based on a Chinese folk tale. Versions also exist in other Asian countries. Dragons are not born like other crea-tures. They are created from carp who leap the magic waterfall at Dragon Gate. The journey from the home of the carp to Dragon Gate Island is long and dangerous. Each year, the biggest and strongest fish form a convoy and prepare to leave the river. Only rarely will a carp succeed, and the race is not always to the swift. This movie was created over five summer vacations by students at the University of Otago using locally produced software.
