Thinestra is a goopy, gloppy, dark-humored horror tale of attempted weight loss that, for some characters, means no small amount of blood loss. Interesting characters, and a good deal of weirdness, wildness, and humor. #RaindanceFilmFestival #Raindance2025 #Thinestra #HorrorSky

Far from the best animation programme I’ve attended – had streaks of ableism and fatphobia and the audience was restless – but I’ll take what I can get. Worth noting Isa Fraga-Abaza’s Birth Controlled, which is pretty unhinged in how it ratchets up the nightmare of pregnancy culture.
