Carried by a pleasantly laid-back jazzy score, these seven minutes of animation offer a joyful journey through an elegantly black-and-white world of forms oscillating between figuration and abstraction. We meet strange frogs, caterpillars, and other critters moving in such perfect synchrony with the music that they could never seem real to us, as they take the shape of ornamental structures. And coming back again and again is the moon, with clouds gliding by. (tr)
Director
Count Turnip is an animated short about a ghost that falls in love with a human. By taking human shape and transforming turnips into dazzling presents, he tries to impress the human, but soon the magic wears off and everything rots away. Distressed, the human can’t handle it and the ghost, left heartbroken, sinks into the ground. However, as time goes by, sprouting from rotting turnip flesh, life begins again. The film ends on a positive note, the ghost reconciliating with nature and finding peace. Count Turnip is a pointed tale about the irritation between human and nature and deals with depressiveness and hopeful resilience.
