About This Movie

Skipping'sore is quite the little gem from 1990. This short animation really dives into the world of stop-motion, showcasing a male and female dancer who elegantly vanish into a blue box. The atmosphere is kind of surreal, almost dreamlike, and it’s fascinating how the practical effects give the illusion of fluid movement despite the limitations of the medium. There's a certain charm in the way the characters interact with their environment, and it feels like there's an underlying commentary on presence and absence. The pacing is crisp, keeping you engaged throughout its runtime. It might not be widely known, but its unique aesthetic and execution make it a standout piece worth discussing among collectors.
