Quote:
"Patricia Gruben used animation to solve narrative problems in [...] The Central Character, a film about groceries, kitchen floors, and entropy, using a printed text as well as diagrams, stock footage, and step-printing of live action. By the end of the film the woman is central to the cosmos."
