Adam Elliot / Australia / 2024 / 94 mins / age advisory 15 years +
The bittersweet tale of Grace Pudel who learns through the telling of her autobiography, that the worst cages are the ones we create for ourselves and that life can only be understood backwards, but we have to live it forwards.
Shot in the traditional and time consuming artform of stop-motion animation, every single prop, set and character is a unique handmade tangible object made by a team of artists who spent almost a year making the 7,000 objects needed to tell Grace’s tale.
