Toyhood

Synopsis

TOYHOOD matches stop-motion animated toys with non-scripted interviews with immigrants living in the UK, making it appear that the toys are being interviewed about their children and pets, and how much they'd miss them if they were gone. Made in response to Brexit, TOYHOOD is a celebration of our neighbours.
