In the lead up to the 87th Academy Awards this Sunday, guest host Rachel Giese checks in with Torill Kove. The Oscar-winning Norwegian-Canadian animator is nominated again this year for her NFB animated short Me and My Moulton. 

It's a charming and whimsical film that draws on her childhood memories of growing up in Norway as the daughter of modernist architects.
