The Bats is a 1999 American short animated film written and directed by Jim Trainor, who also narrates the film alongside Marianne McGinnis.[1] Hand-drawn by Trainor with felt-tip pens,[2] the film follows the life of a bat who resides in a cave near a Mayan temple. He is raised by his mother, learns to use echolocation, and embarks on a journey of sexual and metaphysical discovery before ultimately completing his life cycle.[2][3]
The Bats won an Honorable Mention in the Sundance Film Festival's Short Filmmaking category in 2000.[4]
