A Monster's Calling (L'appel du monstre)
Please note the film's 5-minute running time.
A Monster's Calling is a humorous animated film about the nature of personal anxieties, and body image. An "under-the-bed" monster wanders through a slumbering household, wreaking typical monster havoc. First a little girl, then an older brother, and finally the teenaged big sister. It's surprising, to both the monster and to us, what frightens each of them. A film without words.

Well, there is a monster in it - Megasteakman
This might have to do with my expectations, but I think film is merely adequate. I wasn't expecting a message or moral, but after the 5 minute run time I had to ask "Why was this made?" Also, the content was a little sexual considering the cutesy cartoon look, so I guess you could also wonder "Who was this made for?" It made me laugh once or twice, and the sound design was amazing, but overall I felt a little let down. Be careful not to let this monster enter your house (ok, sorry, I'm being a bit harsh here).
