I’ve been doing these almost weekly posts about short animated films for most of the year. I’ve discussed twenty four animated films since the end of March, and though it’s…
When you click to watch this film, be sure to hit the CC button and turn on the subtitles. Winter is a brutal time of the year, so this week…
