A stop-motion mockumentary about toys and the children they work with, made by matching unscripted interviews with puppets. Zoe Hutberg winning animated short plays using parallels with the toys, to tell a more serious story, searching for empathy amongst everyone of us.
“Toyhood matches stop-motion animated toys with non-scripted interviews with immigrants living in the UK to create the illusion that these toys are being interviewed about their children and pets, and how much they’d miss them. Made loosely in response to Brexit, Toyhood is a lighthearted celebration of our neighbours.”
