Talking about us
“It falls into our category of very short films. It’s a minimalist animation. The idea is fabulous and it’s really very funny. It’s like a little candy.
“This short film was so calming. It felt like all the worries in the world disappeared. And it’s the first time I’ve ever said to a hand, “Nice ass.””
“The comic effect is perfect. The horizon of expectation of an audience accustomed to fantastical tales associated with the animated medium is perverted by the banality of the subject matter (the authors even ironize in the credits about the ‘poetry’ embodied by Christian Bégin), and the flatness of the information delivered belies the ludicism of the demonstration, creating a creative shock at every turn.”
