Uka

The eponymous youngster inhabits a monochrome room where she paints in shades and the only colour in her life comes from an array of jars and bottles placed on the window ledge high above her tousled head. Then she hits on an idea to brighten up her studio lodgings and bring a smile to her face. There's something innocent about this simple stop-motion animation that reminded me of the kind of engaging characterisations that Tony Hart produced here in the UK back in the 1970s and 1980s. It's nicely scored too.
