THE LEGEND OF OCHI
The director used to make music videos before, the Ochi are puppets, no CGIs.
Watchable. Shot in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania, with animatronics as the Ochi, it's modern day fantasy. The story is set "on an island on the Black Sea" and characters bear names that seemed regional to Americans, so there is a Petro but also a Yuri who's a girl. Apart from a few moments of cuteness, the plot is straightforward, grim and gloomy. It feels protracted, the ideas would have sufficed for a short film.
KAYARA
Watchable. Quite a standard animation about a girl fighting patriarchy to follow her career dream. Attractive, Disneyesque animation.
