Why watch the movie The Bones?
"This Chilean stop motion animation won the best short film award at the Venice Festival 2021. The story revolves around a girl - who looks like she came out of a Tim Burton movie - who performs a ritual to free Chile's kingdom from its feudal heritage. With a macabre atmosphere, the plot has great references to Mary Shelley's classic book 'Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus', with a very strong political context. 'Los Huesos' conveys a powerful message about a country's past that has suffered much oppression and still weaves an analysis of Chile's current situation."
