Experimental short movie, animated using multiple techniques.

Said director Zbigniew Rybczynski: "I had to draw and paint about 16,000 cell-mattes, and make several hundred thousand exposures on an optical printer. It took a full seven months, 16 hours per day, to make the piece. The miracle is that the negative got through the process with only minor damage, and I made less than one hundred mathematical mistakes."
