Mini-review:
Good stop motion animation breathes life into stories and characters in a way that feels inimitable, and this very much is one of those cases. The amount of time, passion and effort poured into this project comes across in every single shot. And I loved that it also played around with other types of animation in specific scenes. The story's message about the power of writing and creating art in general strikes a chord, even if the script isn't as impactful as the animation. It kinda feels like we're getting fewer stop motion projects every year, but Soy Frankelda reminds us that we have to support this magical form of animation.
