Hi, It’s Your Mother

About This Movie

So, 'Hi, It’s Your Mother' dives into that awkward family territory we all know too well, right? It’s animated in this really gritty stop motion style that kind of brings a rawness to the whole experience. Lisa’s reluctance to engage with her mum is palpable, creating this strange blend of humor and discomfort. The pacing is sort of frenetic, which contrasts nicely with the weighty themes of familial obligation and the often messy nature of love. There’s a dark humor running through it that makes you chuckle while feeling a bit uneasy. Definitely not your typical family flick, it’s got this unique aesthetic that’s pretty striking and lends itself to the storytelling in a way that’s hard to forget.
