Susie

Bluesky

I know that this won the Jamesons Short Film Award, but it didn't do anything for me.

Susie is shot in stop animation. A woman - Susie, I assume - sits in a kitchen and, for no apparent reason, begins to masturbate while reciting a bizarre and pointless folk tale about a rampant vagina.

Leaving aside for a moment the fact that a kitchen chair is probably the last place in anyone's house they would choose for a bit of personal pleasuring, the film seems to have little purpose other than to shock.

Certainly, the animation is perfectly fine and the imagery suitably shocking, but what a voracious vagina and a climaxing puppet have to say about the state of the world is anyone's guess.
