It has a name… But CK spends her childhood convinced that she’ll be committed if anyone finds out… so she counts… Counts to contain…
Toni and director, Sylvaine Strike, have woven together a compelling narrative exploring the life of fictional character, CK, a little girl burdened by the pathological carelessness of her parents. CK goes through her journey with her loyal dog, Luigi, who is always by her side, keeping cavey as she digs through everything carefully.
The material for Cottonwool Kid is garnered and loosely based on Toni Morkel’s autobiographical material.
