Der Kampf, der Welt dein wahres Selbst zu zeigen

Von Rishi Mulloth

Sometimes when people look in the mirror they don’t see the person that they want to be – they see a false image that doesn’t represent their reality. For people who feel this way, being the person they want to be often means facing ridicule and judgment from society. In the animated short film Kaputte Puppe, the main character faces this stressful and emotional problem. The film takes us through their journey to become who they truly are. A young teenager enjoys figure skating and dresses, but dressing differently creates harassment from his peers and society in general. This feeling of not being able to express oneself causes the teen to be broken inside. But one day, enough is enough, and the teen wears his beautiful dress, and when they look in the mirror, a smile is finally seen. Schließlich, they can walk out that door proudly and unabashedly themselves.

From directors Gaspar Aguirre and Román Sovrano, Kaputte Puppe was curated for Planet Classroom Network by Kids First! Filmfest. The pair tell an emotional and important story that celebrates difference and shows the need for acceptance. This will help illustrate to people struggling with this issue that they aren’t alone in their struggle, and that they can find the road to happiness. Außerdem, the animation style is fun and doesn’t distract from the valuable message being shared.

This film will teach the young audiences the importance of accepting people that are different, and will show them to embrace these people as they are. Außerdem, this animated short will be invaluable for young audience members that share feelings with the main character, and it will provide some support in their own journey. With the great message and the light hearted animation style, this film will be great for young audiences, und ich kann es wärmstens empfehlen. I give it 4.5 von 5 Sterne.
