Wikipedia article
'All My Relations' is a 5-minute short animated film from 1990, directed by Joanna Priestley and made from drawings on paper with 3-D frames.
Summary
It satirizes the pitfalls of romance, from marriage, childbirth and upward mobility to the disintegration of a relationship. The animation
is framed by a series of sculptural assemblages, which emphasize the message implied by the archetypal characters whose dilemmas may be familiar
to those who have bought into the American Dream.[https://www.joannapriestley.com/film-list-alphabetical Alphabetical Film List|Joanna Priestley|Priestley Motion Pictures][https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1990-05-11-9002080220-story.html ANIMATION PROGRAM UNINSPIRED - Chicago Tribune]
