Summary
Three surrealistic clay-animated shorts transport viewers to fantastical worlds. 1) The Small multicolored circus (Director: Jacques-Remy Girerd) A boy left in the subway after closing falls down a slide and through a hole in ice to a magical underground circus. 2) The Baby seal (Director, writer, Pierre Veck) A baby seal is taken from its mother and forced to labor in the circus under a harsh taskmaster. Fleeing this harsh existence, the seal teams up with a blind saxophone player and learns to play the concertina. They perform together on the street and at the Cirque Bonheur. 3) The Two litte nightwalkers (Director, Jacques-Remy Girerd) A magical armoire, two children who sneak out of their house at night, and a magical circus are the elements in this animated short.
