GDT's Pinocchio winning best animated feature is one of the most important things to me as someone who loves animation.
There's so many great things I love about it, the anti-war messaging all thought the movie, how it highlights cristian hypocrisy, the way it doesn't talk down to children, the way it handles death, aswell as how Geppeto isn't some "poor nice guy who just really wants a son and builds a puppet of a child" and is "Some guy who lost his son in war and cannot cope and builds a puppet to try and replace him whilst drunk who has his late sons spirit put into him".
It isn't just the story too, the animators are shown before the cast in the credits, showing that they are appart of the cast, there wouldn't be the movie without the animators, the people who bring the love and the life into the characters.
Animation is the most Important art form we humans have, it's something many people have taken advantage of and taken for advantage. We shouldn't forget animation because when we forget animation, we forget how to tell a story.
