Director’s Note:
I love the idea of how sunflowers constantly face the sun; they turn toward what nourishes and sustains them. Even though Shrek is initially a solitary, grumpy creature, like the sunflower’s stem that stretches through the soil to its bright yellow bloom, he too seeks light—be it in the form of friendship, acceptance, or love. The sunflower’s act of reaching toward the sun mirrors Shrek’s eventual turn toward openness and connection, showing that both need something bigger than themselves to truly thrive: Don’t we all? Enjoy Shrek! ~Toni Butler”
