“Maybe it’s better if I tell you everything?” Another fantastic stop-motion animated low to feature today. This one comes from a British-Polish animation filmmaker named Tessa Moult-Milewska, who finished this as her graduation project from London’s NFTS. Curiosa is a stop-motion animated film under 10 mins that premiered at the 2022 London Film Festival. It picked up numerous awards and is finally online after playing on the fest circuit a while. Curiosa tells the story of overly curious Mary, who visits her boyfriend’s flat for the first time, just to discover it’s been stripped bare of all personal belongings. After being denied an explanation, she notices a door and decides to climb into his head. Learning quite a bit in the process. There is whole fresh style once she leaps into his mind, with body performances by Luna Tosin & Malik Ibheis. Plus the voices of Lizzie Waterworth-Santo as Mary & Dan Connolly as James. This fantastic low has such a unique look and feel, it’s a clever and fascinating look at the psychology of romance. Enjoy.
