For the past decade, Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro can lay claim to being one of Hollywood’s most imaginative directors. He’s the visionary behind the lens that has brought the underworld to life in the confronting The Devil’s Backbone (2001) disturbing Pan’s Labyrinth (2006), bloodthirsty Blade II (2002) and demonic Hellboy (2004) Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008). His most recent work, Pacific Rim (2013) is a visual feast, steeped in fantasy, myth, giant monsters and even bigger robots. If you’re watching a Guillermo del Toro movie, your senses are in for treat.

Check out this adorably charming CG animated short film called Girl and Robot, which follows an impatient girl who takes on the task of building a robot. The question is, can she complete it without destroying her own creation? The short was directed and edited by Mads Dam Jakobsen, and it's a very touching story. I hope you like it!
