Dolls Don't Cry

Dolls Don't Cry (Toutes les poupées ne pleurent pas) is a Canadian animated short film, directed by Frédérick Tremblay and released in 2017. Using stop-motion animation, the film is a portrait of two artists, a man and a woman, who are painstakingly making a stop-motion animated film, before revealing at its climax that they too are characters in a stop-motion animated film being posed and manipulated by another previously unseen animator.

The film won the Grand Jury Prize for Best Canadian Short Film at the 2017 Quebec City Film Festival, and the Prix Iris for Best Animated Short Film at the 20th Quebec Cinema Awards in 2018.
