A group of trolls travels across barren hills looking for edible soil. Once they find a good spot, they’re immediately rolling up their sleeves and start excavating a pit.

CONCRETE JUNGLE / Betonová džungle

CZ 2019 | Animation | 7:30 min | Director: Marie Urbánková

FESTIVALS: Clermont-Ferrand IFF

 

The Concrete Jungle is a short animated film inspired by the limitless imagination of children. When a neighbour drills into a wall, who knows what a child thinks of a sound he doesn’t know and can’t identify. Maybe a herd of bisons is trampling through the neighbour‘s flat, or a savage cannibalistic tribe lives there. Thrilling tales of a small boy in a housing estate where even the most exciting adventures in the world can take place.
