Jojo in the stars is an animation by Marc Craste. It recently won a Bafta for best animated short. Everything I’ve seen so far, including this interview at AnimWatch is great. There’s a kind of Eraserhead mood about it, and in the plot, there are echoes of Freaks which as is a great film made in 1932 about the characters in a circus troupe. Jojo is beautifully lit and the images are tender but a little scary. As soon as there’s a screening, we’ll get tickets.
