'Stressed' is a curious piece from 1995, exploring the tangled lives of London tenement dwellers. The animation is quite distinct, a unique style that feels a bit gritty yet vibrant, capturing that urban chaos. Karen Kelly, the mind behind it all—she's not a household name but really brings a personal touch. The pacing is interesting, meandering through each character's struggles and interactions, really emphasizing how one small action can ripple through the lives of others. There's a palpable tension in the air, a reflection on the stress of modern life, and the missed connections in a bustling city. The film's practical effects, if you can call them that in animation, add a nice layer of depth. It’s a blend of somber and hopeful tones, definitely stands out.
