    Memories, memories, nostalgia, alienation, transience… these are the themes of this animated diary. The film is made outside of the usual forms (screenplay; recording book), and it was created at the moment when the author sat down at the drawing table and started animating.

    by Nedeljko Dragić

    The too fast pace of life in polluted cities makes people sick. Neuroses are an everyday occurrence. Overcrowding, pollution and noise are enemies no. 1. What can happen to a man who is irritated by some sound while he wants to read his newspaper in peace, is the subject of this film. From a calm everyday person exposed to constant sound bombardment, a person becomes dangerous. He is able to tear down and destroy. But maybe it’s all just a fairy tale, because each of us carries everything that accumulates in us during our short human life.

    The man smokes. Something itched and he scratched. Then it is repeated in another place. He starts scratching harder and harder and in more and more different places. From everywhere, from sleeves, coats, trousers, little people start to fall out, and the man no longer manages to step on them. He just scratches like crazy and that scratching turns into agony. The big man begins to sink into his own suit and descend to the ground. A mass of little men gushes from everywhere like a torrent. Finally, the last ones come out and disperse in all directions. There was only one large suit left on the ground.

    This film is based on the so-called comedy of the absurd. The unusual animalism of the figures and their distinctive animation and sound treatment promise that the film will be acceptable to children. Probably even adults will not be indifferent to this variety of fabrications.
