lumps of clay that speak french made me cry?????

A zucchini has no real flavour of its own. When combined with the right ingredients and treated properly it takes on all flavours surrounding it, thus becoming part of the whole.

This is a metaphor, I'm not suggesting you should eat children.

Also watch this film. And be good to those you love.

And to those you don't love.

Just watch this film ok?

This is a sad movie!

Consider myself floored, especially by its minimal runtime (70 minutes) and how it still manages to juggle the flow of childhood language, implications of the harrowing, and young, lost groups being revitalized by their respective traumas throughout an isolated, rudimentary setup. I can't praise this little movie enough. So many feels, so many truths, and yet always moving along a nice, quiet stream of compassion and kindness, never over-stuffing itself or settling for less.

claymation invented depression

whoops, went through a year
supply of Kleenex in a single hour.

zucchini more like onion haha cuz you know im crying

wow that scene in the snow,
when they're looking up at
the moon -- what a moment.

When you ask an American where babies come from:
"Babies come from a factory and storks deliver them. And their hair is dyed like the rainbow before delivery!"

When you ask a Frenchman where babies come from:
"Exploding willies."

This movie is a miracle.

Very cute but also hard hitting. It was heartwarming and devastating especially with those last 10 minutes. Not surprised to see Celine Sciamma behind the screenplay

2nd viewing.

A beautiful exploration of childhood trauma, and the foster-care system, with a surprisingly wholesome and optimistic approach. With bright colors, and childlike sensibilities, the movie uses its style and tone to take us on a heartfelt journey of healing, love, and friendship. It doesn't shy away from the pain and trauma, but neither does it define the film , just as these children learn to not let it define them. The movie is beautifully animated (in its own way), and at just over 60 minutes, it never outstays its welcome.

idiot i eat zucchini

loved this

História de cortar o coração, mas ainda sim contada de maneira tão leve. Emocionante.

eyeballs hurt from CLAY. from watching CLAY

So many tears... My heart aches for Simon

Çok eğlenceli  değildi çünkü bence bi tık ciddi bir konusu vardı ama çok sıcaktı ve kısaydı. 💔🥺 diyebiliriz

just want to live in raymond’s french plant room while crying over this film

Do nada um filme escrito pela Céline Sciamma.

I’ve found a new love for animation films recently. This is so so precious. Celine Sciamma screenplay 💦💦 beautiful score and kids really said ACAB ❤️

so adorable oh my
i didn't like the animation style/claymation characters
as in it's not something i want to watch more of or seek out but it worked so well for this film
the animation had a childlike quality and everything just worked
+ french films are just instantly better because it sounds so pretty
feel like i would've cried if i didn't watch this on a monday morning between lessons...
