The Elephant and the Bicycle (Le Vélo de l'éléphant)
Ajyal Competition
Synopsis
As the work day begins, people spill out of their houses and in turn spill garbage all over their pristine avenue. A streetcleaner (who happens to be an elephant!) cleans up after these messy humans, happily sweeping his way through the day and spending his earnings on bananas. One day he sees a billboard for a bicycle, and becomes fixated – he must get his trunk on that red two-wheeler! Fun, touching and beautifully drawn, Olesya Shchukina’s short is sure to delight.
