The animation in the film doesn’t come across as ‘amateurish’ at any point. Animation is part of the protagonist child’s imagination. The elements are bright and colorful, just the way a child’s world is, and it flows smoothly into the story. It is not animation just for the sake of animating something. There is a purpose and that is to carry the story forward. It is a subtle way of giving the audiences a glimpse into the child’s inner world and the animation captures that perfectly.
