Trans Allegories in Film: 'Robots' (2005)
Animation as a medium of storytelling can be thought to be open to all ages and as I hope my readings will reveal, they could be interpreted as transgender stories.
Saudades em cor
After losing his grandfather to an unknown virus, without even having the chance to say goodbye, a young boy revisits, in memory, the experiences and moments shared with his loved one. Upon finding a photograph of his grandfather as a young boy, the boy goes to his bed and opens the storybook that, in the picture, his grandfather was holding while reading to him. It is from this immersion in the multicolored narratives that the boy gives new meaning to his pain, transforming longing into color.
