This Granny is scary!

Warning: Spoilers
I watched this on youtube and I thought it was very funny.

It shows what would happen if a slightly deranged Granny used a bedtime storytelling of Sleeping Beauty to reveal her anger at the mistreatment of older people by society! It's funnier that it sounds.And less than seven minutes long. The animation is excellent. There are two styles used. One for the sequences with the Granny and the terrified grandchild and a more basic style for the Sleeping Beauty story. Kathleen O'Rourke wrote the script and does the voice of Granny. Great to see Irish films being nominated for Oscars in both the feature and short animated film category this year. I understand most of the filmmakers involved in both films (and one involved in Avatar) studied at the animation course at Ballyfermot College in Dublin. Congrats to all involved.
