Edmond no es como los demás. Cuando sus compañeros de trabajo se burlan de él colocándole un gorro de asno, de pronto Edmond tiene la revelación de su verdadera naturaleza y parece que se siente a gusto con su nueva identidad.

An allegory of mankind heading for disaster, this animated short is a tragic vision inspired by the 4th movement of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition. Drawing on the composer’s brilliant ability to evoke work and labour in his music, animator Patrick Bouchard brings earth to life through animated clay sculptures, creating a tactile nightmare in which man is his own slave driver.
