Editor's Comment
"A painfully melancholic stop-motion animation about childhood tragedy, abandonment and the malleable nature of family, My life as a Zuccihini effectively shreds the rulebook of children's cinema. Written by Celine Sciamma, it gives voice to their joy, which is not lost in all this melancholy."
— Secil Kose
