In the new animated gem Rocks in My Pockets, Latvian-born artist and filmmaker Signe Baumane tells five fantastical tales based on the courageous women in her family and their battles with madness. With boundless imagination and a twisted sense of humor, she has created daring stories of art, romance, marriage, nature, business, and Eastern European upheaval-all in the fight for her own sanity. Employing a unique, beautifully textured combination of papier-mâché stop-motion and classic hand-drawn animation (with inspiration from Jan Svankmajer and Bill Plympton), Baumane has produced a poignant and often hilarious tale of mystery, mental health, redemption and survival.

致鬱
小家庭表达大背景,关注东欧社会主义国家的女性命运以及精神心理健康问题。虽然情节中插科打诨,有些许的黑色幽默,但还是改变不了叙事的单调与压抑,再加上单一的操浓重口音的英文从头一直絮叨到结尾,实在催人入睡。个人色彩太浓,不喜欢。
