Spoiler Warning
The Blue Ball
A lonely man rolls a big blue ball. People encountered on the way do not help him. Night does not bring rest either, he has to chase away the birds. The man finally reaches the end of the road and pushes the ball into the sea. An animated parable created by Miroslaw Kijowicz, a director, scriptwriter of animated films, set designer and educator. An ordinary man was usually the protagonist of Kijowicz's philosophical short films. The situations presented in the films were rather general, they were supposed to provide food for thought.
