A day in the life of an organ grinder, down on his luck, who wanders the streets of Paris, dreaming of what might be. He can't help but crank out the occasional false note, just often enough to enrage his listeners and discourage any donations. He dreams of playing a large pipe organ. The juke box drowns him out at a cocktail bar, a church organ drowns him out on a street, pinball machines drown him out at Luna Park. The city's neon lights and commercial posters overwhelm his small art. At the end of the day, he captures the tear of a calliope horse - his sole earnings for the day - which may prove magical. close

The cartoon presents a man (known as "Mr. Line"), marked by a single line along his silhouette, who walks along an infinite line of which he is a part. The character encounters obstacles and often turns to the animator to draw him something to overcome the obstacle, with varying degrees of success. One recurring obstacle is the sudden end of the line. The character also often almost falls from the edge into the abyss and gets angry at the animator, complains about him. “Mr. Line” is voiced by Carlo Bonomi in a variety of Milanese dialect, most similar to gibberish, which gives the cartoon the ability to easily export without duplication.
The first 8 episodes were created to advertise Lagostina’s kitchen utensils and Mr. Line was presented as “Agostino Lagostina, an energetic little man with a truly expressive nose.” After Episode 8, the series lost its association with Lagostin. close

An animated short by Bruno Bozzetto which condenses the whole of human civilization into 9 minutes, focusing primarily on the human race's predilection for warfare and the vanity of war. It was an Oscar Nominee for Best Animated Short in 1991.
Each piece of history is presented as a simple vignette, usually depicting a few simply-drawn characters arguing and making war, over and over again. Generally, a single figure is meant to stand in for an entire group (i.e., a single Caesar-like caricature for the entire line of Roman Emperors). There is very little spoken dialogue; instead, most of the cartoon is accompanied by a bouncy piano-driven score, which frequently changes style to suit the particular historical era. However, the score is all based around a single simple theme, to which it frequently returns in between vignettes. close
