A young girl aspires to be beautiful and have big feet, wearing big shoes despite her normal sized feet. She books in to have a foot enlargement operation, but is the ideal practical for day to day life.
This short was part of the 2003 series `animation in residence' or AIR for short, where graduate students are given a shot at a televised short film. The plot here is quite clever, it seems to refer to the body image ideals portrayed by the media, but it doesn't manage to really do anything with it. The punchline is obvious and doesn't act as comment, which I felt it should have done.
The animation is interesting but it is not really slick or professional looking - it did remind me that this was essentially a student film, regardless of her being a graduate or not. Overall it is worth seeing but it doesn't do as much as my first understanding of the plot led me to hope it would.
