WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On Aug. 14 at 8:10 pm, the Clark Art Institute presents a free outdoor screening of "My Life as a Zucchini" (2016) as part of its summer series of films that resonate with the themes of the exhibition Guillaume Lethière.

 

According to a press release:

 

After his mother's sudden death, Zucchini is befriended by a police officer, Raymond, who accompanies him to his new foster home, filled with other orphans his age. Brought to life through memorable character designs and expressive stop-motion animation, this story soars with laughter, sorrow, and joy, and stands as a testament to the resilience of the human heart.
