Oscar nomination for stop-motion <b>Fresh Guacamole</b>

Oscar nomination for stop-motion Fresh Guacamole

Fresh Guacamole, the latest animation by legendary filmmaker PES, is up for an Academy Award. The short film, in which a grenade functions as an avocado, dice as tomatoes and a baseball as an onion, has been nominated in the ‘Best Animated Short Film’ category.

The combined ingredients (the taco chips are poker chips) create a guacamole that, despite the unusual recipe, still looks delicious. Filmmaker PES (aka Adam Pesapane) is best known for the stop-motion animations Western Spaghetti and Roof Sex. These videos have been viewed millions of times on YouTube. We enjoy watching stop-motion films about food too. That's why we asked Renske Mijnheer (Sir Moving Images) to make a number of videos for the previous edition of the Food Film Festival.

PES will have to wait another month to find out if his film wins: the Oscars will be announced on 24 February.
