Summary
A child who longs to sing must stay quiet because her voice can cause great calamity in the mines.
Our Take
A quiet, gorgeous little fable that trades action for feeling, and it mostly pays off. The stop-motion work from Aardman is stunning, full of tactile detail you want to reach out and touch, and the father-daughter story lands its emotional beats without overexplaining. It’s slight compared to some of the flashier entries, but the sincerity carries it. A lovely way to close out the season.
