Estonian animator Martinus Klemet presented his tragicomedy short animation Yummy in the Grand Competition at this year's Animafest Zagreb. Inspired by the color palette of the Croatian comic book artist Igor Hoffbauer, the visually vibrant Yummy is a story about Julia who works as a dog food tester, but after a sudden break up, dog food doesn't seem to taste the same anymore. In this video interview, the film director discusses metaphors and visual identity as well as collaborating with the Oscars-shortlisted production company AAA Creative.
