LOST AND FOUND | Omeleto

★ Oscar shortlist

Two crocheted toys living behind a sushi counter, a dinosaur and a fox, face a sudden accident that forces the dinosaur into an impossible rescue. Told entirely through stop-motion action with no dialogue, this Australian short turns a children's-book premise into a sharp ache about loss and the sacrifices love asks of us.

Why it's free: Free on Omeleto's own channel; the distributor licensed it from directors Andrew Goldsmith and Bradley Slabe.
