A Long Dream/꿈 꿈

by Hoji Tsuchiya

For Hire! Bangalore Rickshaw by Xaver Xylophon

"Green, yellow, black. They are the blood in the veins of Bangalore: the 450.000 rickshaws and their drivers. Knocked together from bits and pieces, decorated, ready for the junk heap or carefully maintained like antique cars, the vehicles are as charismatic as their owners, who brave the monstrous traffic of this metropolis daringly, sleepy, chattering or stoic, making sure the passanger's trip from A to B will be full of memorable experiences.
Based on days of riding around in rickshaws and drawings made locally, this animation captures the tough workaday life of a rickshaw driver, seen through the eyes of a European visitor."

Charlady by Lucette Braune

A cleaning lady spents her life close to the ground. Hopefully in heaven things are better. Poem: Gerrit Achterberg (1949). One from 'the animated poetry' series by ilLuster productions
