Presenting episode 3 of the Skwigly Animation Film Club!

In our third episode we press play on Swiss director Claude Barras's acclaimed 2015 feature "My Life as a Courgette/Ma vie de Courgette", alternately known as "My Life as a Zucchini". Adapted from the 2002 Gilles Paris novel "Autobiographie d'une Courgette" by and beautifully told in stop-motion, the film tells the tale of young Icare who, following the accidental death of his mother, is taken into an orphanage.
