Dark comedy animation on climate change | "Pig" - by Jorn Leeuwerink

Published 2023-06-07
A group of animals hooks up a power grid to the socket-shaped snout of one big, sleeping pig. The animals use the pig’s energy for simple things at first, but soon they render themselves dependent on a city where every single thing - the useful and the useless - is automated...

‘Pig’ is an 8-minute short film that comments on the climate crisis with a seriously funny tone. A tragicomic, absurd fable that summarizes a complex side of humanity, in a playful style reminiscent of children's books.

This animated short film was nominated in the following festivals:
-Clermont-Ferrand 2023
-Europe on Screen 2023
-Filmfest Dresden 2023
-BFF Kristiansand 2023

    Müasir, zəmanəmizə uyğun, düşündürücü film. Bütün iştirakçılara, zəhməti keçənlərə təşəkkür edirəm. 🙏🏻🙂👍 Təbiətin gələcəyini düşünmədən onu var gücümüzlə istismar edirik. 😢

    Fun movie. The animation was very cute, and I love impossible multi-level vertical cities.

    Aren't we all indeed hooked on electricity pretty much 24/7? And wouldn't an Armageddon ensue if the current suddenly stops? Genius short.

    Brilliant job! It's the raccoon portrayed as the thief for me 😂😂
  • @wmtarr886
    I like the film and understand the intended message, problem is the blame involved is incorrect
  • I would love to play a video game in this art style.
  • @truthinmelodie874
    The originality makes it really enjoyable. Specially how it has a convincing animal version of daily human activities
  • @metermorphose
    To me that short is an amazing and outstanding art work! So many gorgeous ideas, just to name two: not only the heater but a cooler in the restaurant, trying to stuff of all things a goose into the pig... and so many more. Such an intelligent, critical film, impressive pictures and in addition to all the irony: that music. I need to share that 💪 and watch it several times again. I am really impressed.

    🐷 is fossil energy 🐘 is nuclear(new-clear)
  • The "elephant in the room" is that human overconsumption of everything is ultimately leading to the end of our current version of human civilization. Hmm...what to do?
  • How much exploitation is too much exploitation anyway?!? Nothing can be an unlimited source of power!? 😮

    Tell ya 2d animations have far more creative minds behind their work, than 3d which are so influenced by the big wig studios.
