I Met the Walrus
Director: Josh Raskin
Writer: Josh Raskin (writer)
Genre: Animation / Short
Plot: In 1969, a 14-year-old Beatle fanatic named Jerry Levitan, armed with a reel-to-reel tape deck, snuck into John Lennon’s hotel room in Toronto and convinced John to do an interview about peace. Using the original interview as the soundtrack, this narrative tenderly romances Lennon’s every word in a cascading flood of multi-pronged animation.

This is an adaptation of an early Kafka story, a soldier is taken prisoner in the night by a pack of jackals.
