Ferrailles (1996)

I really quite enjoyed this. Ir's a bit like the animator has gone to town in a Meccano museum or a junk shop - and the visuals are intricate and cleverly merged to create robotic and characterful real-form metallic shapes using nuts and bolts, wires, cogs and parts from old engines. Initially, it looks conceptually abstract but then develops more recognisable creatures and in the end has an almost familial feel to it - complete with it's own form of tin-tantrum. Quirky. I liked it.
