Humans

A very nice looking satirical piece.

Tim Tom

A meta-film with a very sadistic human creator.
I'm not sure if the likeness to Jiri Trnkas "the Hand" is intentional or not but while Trnkas hand represented the totalitarian regime this hand is just plain mean.

(Thanks to Jan Johansson for reminding me of this film.)

the Big Win

And now it's time for a very stylish commercial for the National Lottery (UK that is).
CGI made to look like 50's puppet animation.
If you're wondering the tune is sung by Patience and Prudence, it's slightly disturbing how jolly they are.

Take the afternoon off to browse Studio aka's film gallery, there's a lot to like there.

The Monk and the Fish

This is one of my alltime favourite animated shorts, it's beautiful and funny and the obsession of the monk to catch that fish is just adorable.
