One evening a man watches eight movies simultaneously on television.
A group of young men train to be revolutionaries and plan an insurrection of the Canadian government.
Monsieur Pointu would like to play his fiddle. But the fiddle has other ideas.
A superb visual trick that will mystify its audience, this animated film transforms the commonplace into magic.
Animated short film made in pixilation. The film tells the amusing story of an attempt at seduction that is certainly out of the ordinary.
This funny yet serious short film demonstrates the effectiveness of advertising and the marketing machine. Its comic appeal lies in the characters and the absurd situations they find themselves in, but it also shines a harsh light on our tendency towards needless consumerism prompted by a steady flow of commercials.
This film promotes, in the best K-Tel tradition, a new device used to speak French.
Taa Tam of the Maha Tribe knew music before music even existed... or so this imaginary legend goes. He saw rhythm everywhere: in the flutter of the leaf, in the pounding of corn, in the pulse of the planet. One night, he dreams himself into a place where all he touches becomes an instrument. Wood and bone metamorphose into xylophone and rattle. Animal hide resounds with the deep voice of the drum. With his soul on fire, an exultant Taa Tam discovers his ability to bring alive the passion that has been locked inside him for so long. Volcanoes erupt and flames leap to the vigorous beat of the world's premier concert. Wrapped in luxuriant colours and a vibrant sound track, Taa Tam celebrates human creativity at a performance where music is the guest of honour. A film without words.
Eight animated pieces by eight artists, from the studios of the National Film Board of Canada.
