Partly based on personal experience, this story aims to get across the idea that at that age, this sort of situation really makes you feel like you’re trapped in a gothic ho rror story.\n\nMenstruation, and by extension women’s health as a whole, i sn’t often discussed in popular media - and almost never in a medium like animation. Because of the implicit taboo that exists, there’s still a lot of shame and ignorance that surrounds a period, when that certainly should n’t be the case. Period Drama is our effort to address this, and hopefully make the subject easier to discuss, too.\n\nPeriod Drama made a significa nt victory at the Student Academy Awards this year as the only animated fi nalist from the United States. Among numerous festivals it was also awarde d Best Animated Short in Cannes and screened at the renowned Newport Beach Film Festival. For the film's technical feats, it was awarded Film of the Year at the Rookies Awards.\n\nRegistration Category: FULL ACCESS, EXPERI ENCE PLUS ACCESS, TRADE EXHIBITOR\n\nFormat: IN-PERSON URL:https://sa2022.siggraph.org/en/full-program/?id=caf_133&sess=sess209 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
