Tezuka’s animated short film is an allegorical gem in which a boy, in a country where the freedom to daydream is prohibited, is sectioned when he tells his parents of his sightings/imaginings of the titular (fictional?) character. Iain.Stott

Memory (1964)
Posted on 05:35 by uthpa
Atomic clouds mutate into glasses of beer, and aliens with drawers for mouths tell tales about how the (now extinct) human race used to worship toilet bowls, in this silly, irreverent, and (unsurprisingly) rather lightweight yet very entertaining look at the role that memory plays in our everyday lives, from Japanese animator Tezuka.
