Short Film: A Tale of a Sassy Little Girl


Directed by Francesca Nobili, this stop-motion animation from 2017 is less than 3-minutes in length and is a neat little foray into imagination.

The sassy little girl is in bed when there is a knocking at the window. It turns out this is because the skeleton of a pirate is tapping with its hooked hand that it then scraps down the window pane. The bedroom door opens and a mummy comes in, whilst the skeleton opens the window.

The open window allows a bat to fly in, which transforms into a vampire. The little girl with no more ado, gets out of bed and pulls a small keyboard from under it – but what could that possibly do against the monstrous trio? Well the answer is embedded below but I do want to reproduce the dedication on the film’s vimeo page: “I want to dedicate this video to all the little girls, young girls and women out there who face their own "monsters" every day, and remind them that they have the strength, the courage and the creativity to fight and win”.

The imdb page is here.
