Watch The Latest Gobelins Animated Short ‘Acrobats’
by Tito W. James
Gobelins animated shorts never cease to amaze with their stylish presentation and cathartic themes. In this latest short, a girl comes back home to an oppressive living room and throws up acrobats in front of her family. The story is a clear allegory for the experience of growing up Queer in a household that has heteronormative expectations. French animation continues to push boundaries in terms of visual aesthetic and subject matter. I hope that those who watch the short feel empowered to unleash their own creativity.
