Grandpa Walrus

201815 min7.1 / 10

A spare, melancholic animated meditation on grief and family fracture in the aftermath of death, told through fragmented moments on a desolate beach.

On the windy and cloudy beach, Granny is praying, Mum is shouting, the sisters don’t care, Lucas is alone. Grandpa was a weird guy, now he's dead.
