Fiction, Short-film, Stop-motion
What they say about Carmen
Eve Ferretti's stop-motion animated short film tells the poignant story of a young girl born without arms. Narrated in a memoir-like tone, the film consistently introduces others’ voices through the recurring phrase, “They say that...”
This refrain serves as a narrative counterpoint, highlighting the contrast between what is told and what is truly experienced. By exposing different layers of human behavior, the film challenges perceptions of normalcy and explores the indifference often shown toward those who are different.
