Chilly & Milly is an animated documentary exploring my father’s chronic health problems as a diabetic with kidney failure, and my mother’s role as his stalwart caretaker. Shot in miniature, it combines 3D modeled/composited characters with cinema verité scenes from a documentary I shot over 13 years ago. It is a story of love and resiliency in the face of hardship, turmoil, and the encroaching death of a loved one. The short film will premiere at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival. For information on how to screen it at your festival, please email the director at william.d.caballero@gmail.com, or visit the project website at www.wilcab.com/chilly-and-milly
