I found this short randomly scrolling through FirstShowing.net so shout out to them. This is from last year's Academy Awards and was the last unwatched one in the Animated Short category so I can finally tick that off as completed.A man (Albert Birnley) reflects on his childhood and bonding with his dad through packing suitcases for his dad's many business trips.
It's done with claymation (or CGI masquerading as claymation) and has that stop-motion feel to it. Which is good because the actual story is pretty bleak and delivered in a monotone voiceover that does nothing to alleviate the tone. It's currently available on YouTube from the channel Short of the Week if you have a spare five minutes.
