Description

Take the inventive, dazzling energy of our Rated K: For Kids shorts and turn it toward the messy, complicated side of being all grown up. From bizarre misadventures to a singular new creation from two-time Oscar-nominee Don Hertzfeldt, these darkly funny, poignant, and visually stunning animated shorts prove that "cartoons" are more than just child's play. AGES 13+
