Here’s an unsettling stop-motion animated short film for you to watch that will freak you out. It’s titled Everybody Goes to the Hospital and it tells the tale of a 4-year-old girl named Little Mata as she's taken to the hospital in late 1963 with appendicitis.
The film is said to be based on a true story and it comes from writer and director Tiffany Kimmel and it’s the story of her mother. It explores physical, psychological, and familial trauma, and Kimmel said in a statement: "In making this film, I wanted to capture the storybook-like quality that I experienced when hearing this story as a child.”
Kimmel went on to say she wanted her "mom's childhood experience to be played out in the doll-like manner she told it, as an unprocessed traumatic fairytale, whilst also carrying a warning for others to believe their children and to stay close."
I’ve never been a fan of going to the hospital, and watching this short definitely doesn’t help!
