My Stuffed Granny

About This Movie

So, 'My Stuffed Granny' is this quirky animation that plays with some heavy themes. You get this mix of comedy and drama, which feels really fitting for the setting—a family hit hard by the Greek recession. The pacing is a bit off at times, but it adds to that awkward charm. The practical effects, particularly in how they animate the stuffed granny, are a fun touch, making her almost endearing despite her grumpy demeanor. The performances, while from unknowns, have this raw energy that captures the desperation of Sofia's situation. It's distinctive because it tackles grief and economic hardship through a lens of childhood imagination. You don’t see that every day.
