Bath House - Award winning Stop frame Animation

Ironically, there is a lot to be said about comedies with very little dialogue that make you laugh out loud, especially if you’re giggling at figures that were painstakingly handmade by the film’s creator. With all that talking, you’ve got to get every other aspect of the piece exceedingly right in order to keep your audience captivated. That’s exactly what our Staff Pick Premiere this week, “Bath House,” does in delightful detail.

Director and animator Niki Lindroth von Bahr has created a spectacle in this miniature stop-motion world. Here, extended bouts of silence speak much louder than words as an unfortunate series of events unravels for an irritable, but well-meaning horse — who happens to take her job as a public pool manager very seriously. In many ways “Bath House” is a film of juxtapositions; what looks cute and harmless is actually vindictive and selfish, and a public pool — one of the most relaxing and sterile places in any town — is actually a recipe for catastrophe. It’s about the darkly humorous chaos that can happen in an environment where every person (cute furry animal or otherwise) is out to serve themselves first and foremost.

“Bath House” was shown at the prestigious Annecy International Animated Film Festival in 2014 and Sundance Film Festival in 2015, and is making its online debut today on Vimeo. We hope you love it as much as we do. Read on for our Q&A with Niki Lindroth von Bahr about how she created this black comedy.
