The director constructs a visual trick, relying on stop-motion and editing to breathe life into an inanimate object. It explores the early cinema's fascination with film form as a vehicle for pure, playful spectacle.
What lingers after viewing is a sense of innocent wonder at the medium's foundational magic—a brief, charming proof of cinema's limitless potential for fun. — MovieFinder Editorial
