Glad to help.
I'm looking for this short stop motion film (which may or may not be eastern European?? not sure) about a mother and her son who lives alone in this one room apartment.
So the plot was something like this: the mother goes to the store (which has a long queue) and leaves her son alone in said apartment, unbeknownst to her while she's not there her home gets ransacked by burglars, her son hides from these burglars in the closet but the burglars find him anyway, (and then somehow the son was able to get ahold of one the burglar's gun à la looney tunes) they probably kidnapped the son too but I'm not sure about it..
The mother had long black hair and the son was a little blonde boy who probably wore something green. The backgrounds were pretty cheap looking too.
The animation style was stop motion but I can't quite remember if it was claymation or if dolls were used instead (like Coraline), or a mix of both. It also probably had "Mother" in its title too.
I wasn't able to finish this short film so these are the only details I can remember..
