“My first dream was to work at Aardman, and my second was to make a Star Wars film,” Osinska tells.

Along the way, they face down friends, foes, and a whole host of obstacles, both in the sky and in their cockpit.įor the film’s writer and director, Polish-born Magdalena Osinska, this project was the definition of dream fulfillment. The short film follows the relationship between a young Twi’lek student named Anni (short for Annisoukaline) and her doting mother, Kalina, who, while initially distant and struggling in their relationship, grow closer together during a high-stakes race through the Chandrilan capital of Hanna City. While the saga has had a robust history of using this time-honored technique in its movies and television shows, from the Dejarik chess players in Star Wars: A New Hope to the “scrapwalkers” in Season 2 of The Mandalorian, this is the first time that it has been used to tell a full, official story in the Star Wars galaxy. “I Am Your Mother” is a stop-motion Star Wars: Visions Volume 2 short from legendary UK-based animation studio, Aardman.
