"Seaside Woman" is a 1980 AnimatedMusicVideo for the song of the same Suzy & the Red Stripes (but not really, see below), directed by Oscar Grillo.
The simple story, set in Jamaica, involves a fisherman, his wife, and their little daughter. The "seaside woman" is the mother, who mends her husband's nets, takes care of their little girl, and makes beads and baskets to sell in the marketplace. The husband catches fish, while the little girl cavorts on the beach and eats the sweet potatoes her mother cooks.
"Suzy & the Red Stripes" was actually Music/PaulMcCartney's band Music/{{Wings}}. The song was a response to a lawsuit by [=McCartney=]'s publishers, who accused Paul [=McCartney=] of crediting his wife Linda, a photographer, as co-writer of his songs in order to control half of the royalties. In response Linda wrote "Seaside Woman" by herself. The song was released in 1977 and the cartoon followed three years later.
The music video can be watched [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEm-7z46LFM here]].

!!"Seaside Woman" contains examples of:
* AlternateRealityEpisode: Wings putting out a single under the label "Suzy & the Red Stripes".
* AnimatedMusicVideo: A video accompanying Linda [=McCartney=]'s effort to prove she was a real songwriter.
* ArtShift: The credits sequence abandons animation and presents instead a series of Linda [=McCartney=]'s photographs of native Jamaicans.
* BeachEpisode: A song about a fishing family that lives on a beach.
* HappilyMarried: "Papa loves mama" in the lyrics, and indeed the parents are shown embracing, and watching their daughter sleep as papa holds mama in his arms.
* {{Mammy}}: Sort of. The mother isn't EthnicMenialLabor like the classic cinematic Mammy who was a servant to white people; she and her husband work for themselves. But the mother ''looks'' exactly like the classic "mammy" image, being obese and wearing the typical dress with a heavy skirt and the bandana over her hair.
* {{Reggae}}: A video of a song done in reggae style, inspired by Paul and Linda's vacationing in Jamaica.
* SliceOfLife: A portrait of the simple life of a fishing family in Jamaica.
* StepUpToTheMicrophone: Linda [=McCartney=] getting to sing a Wings song.
* StockAnimalDiet: The little girl has to release her pet fish into the ocean to prevent her pet cat from eating it.
* VillainousGentrification: Near the end of the cartoon the beach where the family lives starts getting filled up with resort hotels and white people, who gawk at the mother as she cooks sweet potatoes and mends her husband's nets.
