Here's an animated short that many parents will instantly relate to: a child at a restaurant with their parents, refusing to eat the vegetables they've been offered. Then, finally, something interesting and delicious-looking arrives at the table-but it's so slippery that it keeps trying to escape, leading to a hilarious chase. The story is so relatable, and I loved the ending-it felt like exactly the right decision! I would've done the same.

Of note, the film uses limited animation, where only a few characters and items move. Some of the static background elements-like people frozen in time-were surprisingly interesting. I actually really liked that stylistic choice.
