Garnering an Academy Award for Best Animated Short, this dark comedy from multi-award winning animation company Brown Bag films, tells the story of a seemingly sweet-hearted elderly lady who tells her anti-ageist version of fairy tales to her frightened granddaughter. Employing a slick animation style, director Nicky Phelan crafts this character into a hilarious, embittered lady whose story-telling is packed with sharp wit.
