A perfect, yet hilariously morbid post-Covid story about a mysterious disease that sweeps through the bird population. Everything goes to hell - planes crash, cities burn, all ends - but at least we get to enjoy this WTF-short.
The stuff of spacey nightmares, but also kinda cute, and terrifying, and eerie, but still cute. Anyway, this is a story about a man and a cat. No sorry ... A man, a cat and a dream. Wait ... probably a man, a cat, a dream and a vespa! It's about relationships and how they can shape our lives forever. But maybe it's just a story about a man and a cat. Who knows ...
"Don't die on me". Really, again? It's like every time an asthmatic person coughs, he has to deal with that irritating sentence. An expressive short with a lot of snot and a lot of coughing, Don't Die on Me is a revolting portrayal of the noisy life inside a malfunctioning body, and the deadly silence that stops it.

Here, she embraces the absurdity of the unyielding power of the media and our current-day obsession with participating in moral outrage.

At Kaboom, we have seen many a great weird sh*t. But a psychological stand-off between a young naïve croquette and a bitchy cheese soufflé ... that's something we never dared to dream of.
It's all about the sausage in this reimagining of Little Red Riding Hood. The roles of the humans and animals are reversed. Influenced by Paul Driessen, animator Thomas Stellmach decided to use the historical optical device of the Zoetrope to tell this story. Equally hypnotic and hilarious, A Zoetrope Fairy Tale is a critique on our thoughtless meat consumption. Our unconscious habits truly determine our lives.
