Tampon is a curious little gem from 1989, directed by Justine Whitehead. The animation style is distinctly raw, almost reminiscent of early underground animations, which gives it a unique charm. The pacing is quite deliberate, allowing the viewer to absorb the nuances of the narrative. The film tackles a very woman-centric issue with a mix of humor and honesty, something you don’t often see approached in this medium. The character designs are simple yet expressive, adding to the overall tone. It's not flashy, but there's a certain authenticity to the way it portrays everyday struggles. The practical effects, though minimal, feel grounded, making the animated world surprisingly relatable.
