LE TRAVAILLEUR

Château-vacant · France · Experimental / Drama · 6 min · ♥︎ 931

Life-size wooden puppets act out the grinding routine of workers on a slaughterhouse assembly line, filmed in handmade sets built at full human scale.

Human-scale handmade sets and life-size wooden puppets give this wordless tale of factory toil an uncanny, tactile power.

Animation movie realized in Strasbourg in a first time, and then during a seven months residence taking place in a disused building of the Morvan hospital in Brest and at last in a farm shed of Kéraliou.
