Revolution of the Crabs by Arthur de Pins



Anna and I ventured over to Chelsea Market yesterday to watch IFC's Rooftop Films - Animated Shorts. The opener was a great film called Revolution of the Crabs by Arthur de Pins. The film won tons of awards since 2004 and is absolutely worth watching.

From IFC:
Revolution of the Crabs is a cute and witty animated short from France about a race of shellfish that have collectively internalized the concept of being trapped in a shell that dooms them to walk forever in the same direction. They are the Pachygrapsus Marmoratus, commonly known as 'depressed crabs.'
