A poet travels abroad to find herself in ‘Window Horses’
You have to admire an animator who can make a star out of a stick figure, and that’s just what Canadian filmmaker Ann Marie Fleming has accomplished.
“Stick Girl,” drawn with the simplest of lines, has appeared in Fleming’s earlier work, and she now takes the leading role in a pretty good new feature, “Window Horses: The Poetic Persian Epiphany of Rosie Ming.”
The movie is, among other things, a celebration of multiculturalism. Rosie Ming (voice of Sandra Oh, also the film’s executive producer) is the daughter of a Chinese mother and Iranian father who lives in Vancouver, British Columbia.
