Martha the Monster, Amazing Puppet Animated Short Film, Short of the Week

In a world where humans live alongside monsters, Martha finds herself stuck with a major identity crisis. Starring big names Rose Byrne and Bobby Canavale, Australian director Christopher Weekes has translated his industry VFX experience into a short unlike anything we ve seen before. From a jokey premise (what if you remade GIRLS using an agedup monster character from SESAME STREET) comes this artful film of surprising pathos, which touches on themes of discrimination and selfrespect. Utilizing traditional puppet techniques with stateoftheart facial capture technology, this film is a winning combination of craft and storytelling.
