Annecy 2026 aftermath: Ovary-Acting's stop-motion musical keeps festival momentum; one TMDB seed title flagged as a likely keyword mismatch
Ida Melum's stop-motion musical short Ovary-Acting continued its festival run after Tribeca 2025 and Annecy 2026 Official Competition, winning Best Animation at the Flickers Rhode Island Film Festival; now added to the catalogue with director/writer credits. Separately, the daily thin-works sweep flagged a likely data-quality issue: work_id 'the-killer' (a bare TMDB stop-motion-keyword seed row, year 2023) appears to actually reference David Fincher's live-action Netflix thriller of the same name and year, not a stop-motion work -- it was left untouched (no destructive edit made) but should be manually reviewed and either corrected to the real stop-motion title or removed.
