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 where his life is turned around by a new group of allies who’ve experienced similarly tumultuous childhoods.
