Kirsten Lepore
This stop-motion animation, made almost entirely with real food, tells the tale of a stalwart cupcake yearning to find something beyond his world of sugar cube skyscrapers and frosting-covered friends.  When his makeshift boat crashes on foreign shores, he makes a shocking discovery that changes him forever.
