Pinocchio (2008)

2009 winner Winshluss turns Collodi's puppet into a silent robot and sends him through a grimy, violent, very adult world, with a cockroach version of Jiminy Cricket living inside his head. It is almost wordless, apart from wordy black-and-white interludes that follow Jiminy, and swings between slapstick and genuine cruelty. Knockabout and Last Gasp published it in English in 2011 as a handsome hardback. Not one for children, whatever the title suggests.
