Short Film: Moongirl

What with their new film 'ParaNorman' out in cinemas soon, thought I'd revisit LAIKA's first all-CGI animated short from 2005. The short is also written and directed by Henry Selick, director of 'The Nightmare Before Christmas', 'James And The Giant Peach', and LAIKA's previous film; 'Coraline').

Moongirl is a fable that re-imagines lunar mythology.

An animation festival regular, the film has captured a number of prestigious awards and honours, including the Short Film Special Jury Prize at the Ottawa International Film Festival and the Grand Owl Award, Best Animation at the Fantasy Worldwide International Film Festival (Toronto).
