The Sad Story of Ya Ya is an adventure tale of a girl, a skeleton and a rabbit, and something that went wrong.
The modern spectator holds a host of information and basic assumptions concerning the way physical rules or their absence affect animated heroes and their abilities. It creates a special framework within which we accept as a given the status of the “heroes” as companions of the real world.
Every week, Ya Ya recounts the devastating developments that led to the tragic end of her story. She confronts the taboo of maintaining the perfection of the body as it appears in Disney’s traditional animations. Under the cover of a story which is “only drawn”, Ya Ya can deal with death, life, and fate, and with the question of why things are the way they are and one cannot change
them. Only one question remains open: what was the color of her eyes?
