Definitely one of the most interesting animated release of the year.
Fiction and reality are realms bound to eachother but the limitation that we hold with stories is something very real. In both film making, writing, song and most artforms. And while limitations are a way for creativity, there are people that use those limitation to squeeze every bit of joy and uniqueness out of you until you give up. I think i am frankelda is a touching story about that, while its characters can sometimes just feel like they only inhabit that, the performances and animation makes them feel alive in a mix with the writing of its themes.
I relate to this story, especially now since i attend a film school and it becomes very weird the longer im there. There isn't anything wrong with it per say but it more so holds those same limitations in style, uniqueness and rules that allow creativity to be crushed.
