In the first session we looked at the uncanny in film. This short creates a sense of claustrophobia and un-comfort. It does this by using a recognisable figure (the human) and creating a strange sense of motion using the stop-motion animation. This is uncanny and uncomfortable. We also looked at a sequence from Andrei Tarkovsky's Mirror, where a similar thing is done, we see a human washing her hair in an incredibly, un-human way, her movements are strange and create a sense of unrest.
