  • Under the guise of a pretty fairy tale, this animated short makes a strong political statement. Animated paper cut-outs enact a drama in which a dictator imposes his delusions on his unfortunate subjects. The humour is black and, despite the absence of dialogue, the message is crystal clear.
    Directed by Francine Desbiens, Bretislav Pojar - 1981 | 6 min

    Sólo para aclarar, Pojar es checoslovaquio, perteneciente a la nueva ola checa cinematrográfica. Lo que hizo Canadá fue remasterizar y salvaguardar el corto. Algo muy loable, por supuesto.

    since I didn’t find a comment on how they interpreted this story, here’s my take:
    a mysterious statue is dropped at the town’s park. it represents a new idea or discovery. the townspeople don’t know much about the statue but they can clearly tell it’s the letter ‘E’.
    there’s another man who looks at the statue and perceives it as the letter ‘B’. this man represents people who disregard innovation because they’re blinded by traditional values. the townspeople explain him that it’s not ‘E’ but ‘B’. some get furious and frustrated that this man does not see eye to eye with them. they represent people who try to force new concepts on others and restore to hate if others don’t get it.
    but when has hate solved anything? and so comes a woman with her young daughter, who represents the youth. she sees how this man is in dire need of help and finds a new way to aid him. she calls the doctor immediately who represents the path to truth.
    the doctor understands that this man just needs some new glasses for him to see the letter ‘E’. this implies that in order to disclose someone the reality, you have to first find what hinders them from seeing it.
    after wearing the new glasses, the man also starts seeing the letter ‘E’ and thus the townspeople rejoice in the newfound revelation and unity.
    but it doesn’t last long as the king dabbles in the park to impose his own insight. he represents the authoritarian government who sees the letter ‘E’ as ‘B’. the murmurs amongst the townspeople begin but the naive doctor, who found a new way to aid those in the dark approaches the king and respectfully demonstrates him how it’s an ‘E’ and not ‘B’. but every tongue that rises against the king shall fall and thus he orders his henchmen to hit the people on the head for they will only see what the king wants them to see. and they do, chanting that it’s a ‘B’. this reveals how the government exploits their power to brainwash people into believing false ideologies of religion, discrimination, education, caste, race, gender and sexuality.
    the short film ‘E’ addresses issues such as political indoctrination, corruption, class system and propaganda in a satirical and simplest way. if you want to explain these complex concepts to someone, make them watch this.

    What kind of a name of a Canadian animated short film is "E"?
    E is not only the fifth letter of the alphabet, but is also the second vowel.
    E is the letter that comes after D and just before F.
    Sometimes, it sounds like "eh", as in "egg", "elbow", and "elephant".
    Other times, it sounds like "eee", as in "eat", "Easter", and "evening".
