Synopsis
When a young woman unexpectedly receives a package in the mail, she is surprised to find it contains a record – and shocked to discover that her turntable suddenly controls time. By moving the needle while the tune plays, she can jump back and forth to different stages of her life – seeing herself in the near future, distant past, and even in her twilight years. As she enjoys experiencing all these moments, however, it becomes harder to get back to the present before the song ends. The film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film.
