Made within DOX:LAB project of the CPH:DOX Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival, WALK WITH ME swoops the viewer into a little Ugandan girl’s world of imagination, as she first encounters and tries to make sense of death. Through a mix of live-action and stop motion puppet animation techniques, the demise of one of the girl’s animals is envisioned as a surrealistic struggle between disembodied doll heads and makeshift toy creatures, brought to life by the child’s creativity. Far from being just a film for children, Walk with Me looks upon death with wide, innocent eyes and discovers that the world is both a cruel, but also beautiful place. (Diana Mereoiu, BIEFF)
