Trans Allegories in Film: 'Nimona' (2023)
Animation as a medium of storytelling can be thought to be open to all ages and as I hope my reading will reveal, 'Nimona' could be interpreted as a transgender story.
The Best Breakup
Yuxin chats with friends at a café about the recent days of being single again, recalling the conclusion of her relationship with Yitian . The two had a prolonged standoff, wanting to avoid any regrets. To ensure closure, they composed a breakup checklist and tackled each item before parting ways. Eventually, they drove to the seaside one night, gazing at the vast, dark ocean. As they counted down their final moments together, the sunrise slowly emerged, just like the gradual end of their relationship.
