Martin (John Amplas), a young man who looks around 20-years-old, boards a train in Indianapolis, Indiana for New York. At night, he breaks into a sleeping car and sedates a woman with a syringe full of narcotics. She struggles, but he tells her not to struggle or be upset because she wont feel pain. After a few minutes, the woman falls asleep, and Martin has sex with the unconscious woman. Afterwards, he slices her wrists with a razor blade so he can drink her blood. The woman bleeds to death in her sleep.
In the morning, the train stops in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where Martin disembarks. He is met by Tata Cuda (Lincoln Maazel) an elderly and hostile old man who claims to be his cousin from the Old World. Together, they travel by another train to the town of Braddock, a dying industrial suburb. They walk to Cuda's large house where he shows Martin his living quarters. Cuda then accuses Martin of being an 84-year-old vampire from his old country. He has taken in Martin because he is family, but tells him, "First I will save your soul. Then I shall destroy you." Martin denies being a vampire and implies that Cuda is merely his uncle rather than his cousin. Cuda then puts up strings of garlic on the doors to his and his granddaughter's room, and then holds up a small cross when Martin approaches him. Martin takes away the cross, and even takes a bite of the garlic mocking these attempts by saying bitterly, "There's no real magic... ever". Cuda tells Martin that he can come and go as he pleases. But he also warns Martin that he will kill him if he kills anyone in Braddock. He also tells Martin to stay away from his granddaughter Christine (Christine Forrest), whom arrives home from her job that evening.
Cuda introduces Christine to Martin, but also warns her to stay away from him. But Christine instead strikes up a friendship with Martin who confides in her about his vampire heritage. When Cuda later confirms Martin's claims to be a vampire, Christine, not surprisingly, refuses to believe either one. She thinks that Cuda and the other members of her family have driven Martin to insanity by making him think that he is a vampire. It is never revealed if Martin really is a vampire, or just a shy and lonely youth with troubled issues. Christine is the only person that Martin gets the courage to talk to. When Christine's boyfriend Arthur (Tom Savini) arrives at the house for dinner, Martin stops talking and backs away despite Arthur's attempt at a conversation. Christine later confides in Martin that she hopes to leave Braddock someday with Arthur, even though Martin points out that Arthur treats her badly and is both verbally and physically abusive towards her.
When Christine sees that Martin won't talk to anyone else, she buys him a phone which he installs in his room. Martin begins to repeatingly call a radio talk show where he describes what it's like to be a vampire. He becomes known on the radio as "the Count" to all the listeners. But the patronizing host (Michael Gornick) thinks he's just crazy.
Martin gets a job at Cuda's grocery store of stocking shelves, hauling boxes around, and even gets to be a delivery boy for some of the customers. One of his customers is a certain Abby Santini (Elyane Nadeau), who becomes taken in with Martin. She is a very friendly young woman who is depressed when she tells Martin that her husband is unfaithful. But Martin still does not have the nerve to talk with her, so she is happy to have someone to confide in with her life problems. Martin phones the radio show host to describe his infatuation with the housewife and senses that she wants to have sex with him. When the radio show host asks Martin if it is a sexual problem that he has involving women criticizing him during sex, Martin replies that he has never had sex with a woman who was awake.
One day, Martin travels by train to outside Braddock to look for victims. At a supermarket, he follows a young woman (Sarah Venable) home to her posh suburban house. He sees the woman's husband (Richard Rubenstein) leave for a long business trip, and Martin decides this would be the right time for more feeding. Martin returns to the house after dark and breaks in through the garage door. But it is Martin who gets the surprise when he bursts into her bedroom to find her in bed with her adulterous lover Lewis (Al Levitsky). After a vicious struggle, Martin jabs both of them with hyprodermic needles with narcotics, and waits for the drugs to take affect. He drags the unconscious body of Lewis from the house to a clump of trees across the street where he kills him by shoving a broken tree branch into his neck and drinks his blood. Martin returns to the house where he has sex with the unconscious woman. But out of compassion and pity, he decides to let her live.
Martin begins to have romantic monochrome visions of his vampire past (real or imagined), where he drained blood from a young woman and was chased through the streets of a nameless European town by a torch-lit mob.
During one Sunday at church, Cuda brings home Father Howard (George A. Romero) who asks him about the possibility of exorcism and demon possession. Father Howard calls upon the elderly Father Zulemans (Clifford Forrest, Jr.) over at Cuda's request. Together, Cuda and Zulemans confront Martin his bedroom and attempt to perform an exorcism on him. At this point, Martin remembers (another real or imaginary flashback), in the Old Country of people trying to perform an exorcism on him, and he flees them. Martin then flees from Cuda and Zuelmas as well. A little later that night, Martin terrorizes Cuda in a children's playground when he puts on a Dracula cape and puts false fangs into his mouth to pretend that he really is a vampire.
One day, Martin finally musters the courage to talk with Mrs. Santini during a routine delivery to her house where he tells her that he's aware of her attempts to seduce him and wants now to have sex with her. After having sex for the first time, Mrs. Santini becomes more depressed for she tells Martin that her husband just left her because she discovered that she cannot bear children, and that her desires towards him are based on sex and nothing else. But Martin wants to stay with her and help her move on with her life. Martin tells the radio show host about his affair with the housewife and that he no longer has the urge to attack other women.
Meanwhile, Arthur meets with Cuda and tells him that he wants Christine to leave town with him so they can get married and start a family. But Christine becomes angry at Cuda when he tells Arthur that insanity runs in their family and he shouldn't consider having children with her. Shortly afterwards, Christine packs up and leaves Braddock for New York with Arthur despite Martin telling her that Arthur is abusive towards her. But her mind is made up. Before leaving, Christine tells Martin that she really has no ill feelings towards him and just wants to make a fresh start with her life. She says goodbye to him and promises to write. But Martin knows that with an abusive and possessive man in Christine's life, she probably won't.
Depressed over losing his one true friend, Martin phones the radio show host and tells him that he's getting "shaky" and wants to go out looking for more victims. That night, Martin travels to a rough crime-ridden area of Pittsburgh and attacks two derelicts in a alley, injecting them with narcotics. He kills one of them by silting the bum's wrist and drinking his blood. Martin is about to kill the second one when a police car shows up and gives chase. Martin narrowly escapes during a long chase on foot which leads from the garbage strew streets and through a local store. Martin runs into an old warehouse where a drug deal is going down. A shootout between the two cops and the three thugs begins where all of them are killed, leaving Martin as the sole survivor who casually walks away from the carnage.
One day, Martin finds Mrs. Santini dead in her bathtub, after she had slit her writs with a razor blade. Martin anonymously calls the police to report the body and leaves. He phones the radio show host one final time to say that he really doesn't need friends or people to talk to for he is his own person. But when Cuda learns about Mrs. Santini's suicide, is mistakenly thinks Martin killed her and made it look like a suicide as he's done before. Cuda walks into Martin's room while he is asleep and kills him by hammering a wooden stake through Martin's heart.
Cuda buries Martin's body in his back garden, while over the closing credits various voices from people are heard talking to the radio show host asking the whereabouts of "the Count".
满满的细节带给我们满满的余韵 让日子慢下来 画风治愈
独立动画的商业尝试很不容易，能有本土故事风格多样的作者动画在银幕上呈现给更多人就是种很好的突破，更喜欢小火车、铁皮柜和翼娃子”。
制作形式还不错。
《小兔的问题》《哼将军和哈将军》比较童趣的路线，尤其后者的纸艺风格别具一格。《蒯老伯的糖水铺》《外婆的蓝色铁皮柜轮椅》《翼娃子的星期天》则有更多成年人的视角的温情感觉，各地方言也很好的融入了。
还有，这真的是一部很能带动人情绪的电影，有笑点，也有泪点。
爱关于同性家庭与代孕孩子之间的故事，是共同的经历组成千丝万缕的爱。
画面很干净，故事很简单，声音很软萌，但确是很生活很接地气的动画短片。七部，真好。
狗血淋头之下的，是我之所以为“我”的根本。
最喜欢《哼将军和哈将军》《小火车》和《外婆的蓝色铁皮柜轮椅》，非常有趣，非常温暖，非常治愈。
从家人们的反应上看前两个更适合小朋友，后三个成年人获得感触的同时孩子也会觉得生动。是挺好的家庭片。
了不起的美术电影。有了这一部，现在的小孩子就有了我们小时候的上海美术电影制片厂。
爱无关乎血缘，是生活中的千丝万缕汇聚而成。
有点drama 不过这就是意大利。男女颜值都好高，甜甜的学生恋爱，我也想拥有。
关于创作过程的短片，可以看到大家确实用心了，主题有来自于个人经历，有市井生活，有来自于套娃创意，非常多元，让人我吃惊的，可能是因为绘本的原因，一个镜头需要一斤的创作，一个小短片却要有接近一个人身高的绘画，真心不易，为你们匠心精神点赞！
很独特，很难得。以往国产低幼动画几乎是低劣的代名词，其实低幼动画更需要有品质有审美的作品。
看到哥哥亲吻了男主，觉得这么抓马么，后面三个人在女主家跟妈妈对谈的那段戏也很精彩，同时也赞叹国外高中生活真的这么开放么。最后看到两位父亲还是分开了，有了自己的生活，男主不定期的去双方家里住，但现实生活中离婚了，应该就不再往来了，即使偶尔去见另一位家长，内心应该也没有剧里这么平静吧。这种时候，会非常感谢父母能把婚姻坚持下去，虽然一地鸡毛，但没有选择放手，虽然我没有勇气去踏入婚姻。
鉴于我不在电影里追求什么道理，我就还是挺喜欢的，甚至会因为一些没头没尾而加星。
在市面上完全没有掀起任何波澜，但可以说是院线近来最出色的短片合集。是为孩子准备的故事，却也为成年人提供一个回望的机会，绘本的形式天然地容纳了不同风格的短篇创作，但它们又完全关乎于成长与家庭的主题，每个篇章都在水准之上，让这批新锐的作者能在被光照到的地方施展才华。最喜欢《小火车》，用一个浪漫想象指代少年的残缺，如同麦兜说他的妈妈成了宇航员，揭晓真相的一幕也充分释放动画的特性。依然相信中国动画有着神话题材以外的多样可能。
有与你一样周末要写作文的《翼娃子的星期天》，
这部动画电影真的好适合父母带着孩子去看！很温情、很治愈，也能轻而易举地唤起我对童年、父母长辈的思念之情。故事很接地气，很多故事情节都在自己身上真实地发生过。画风具有强烈而治愈的国风文学，希望以后我们国内的动画片发展会越来越好！
