...through a portal to parallel world with her 'other mother' and 'other father'. Very much an Alice in Wonderland/Hansel & Gretel tale, except the real world characters are in some ways more nonsensical than the alternate world ones.
It's real stop-motion animation, not CG, so the work that went into it is phenomonal. the music is excellent, not at all cliched or formulaic. I've watched it a few times, once with the director's commentary.
I recommend it! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
:hi: Saturday bunny! :loveya: :pals:
PS: Watch the gloves as they play the piano - they hit every note.

3. I like the clip, I should watch the movie. The music's pretty good, too. |

And you're sure right about the amount of work involved - it's incredible.
How's your Saturday going, darlin'? I'm being pretty lazy today. :hi: :fistbump:

Far darker and creepier than you expect from an animated film.

...very balkan-esque music. Plus: they're cute. :)
On edit: have you heard any of They Might Be Giant's songs for children? Your kid may like those too.
