Neighbours
7.9
“Love your neighbor, meaning, to treat others as you would have them treat you.”
In this Oscar-winning short film, Norman McLaren employs the principles normally used to put drawings or puppets into motion to animate live actors. The story is a parable about two people who come to blows over the possession of a flower.
