Michael Frei - Plug & play

6:00, 2013, Animation
 
Anthropoid creatures with plugs in place of heads are up to mischief. Instead of abandoning oneself to the dictates of the raised finger, they soon submit to themselves. But the fingers also finger around. Is it love?
PLUG & PLAY is entirely finger-drawn using an integrated touchpad of a laptop.
DirectorMichael Frei
