Critic's Choice - Chicago Reader
"Of the entrants in this year's Onion City Film Festival, three of the best are idiosyncratic portraits of places. Jules Engel's Toy Shop is five-minutes of charming animation in which toys and figures come to life, not in the conventional way but as abstract moving patterns. The film's rhythm is like a merry-go-round's; this is a toy shop of the imagination. - Chicago Reader
