Petite Pierre
One of those little joys of a film that we managed to capture on the old VHS machine many years ago and have looked for a better copy but never seen one until now. Not sure this IS better but its slightly longer than the copy we have I think. Emmanual Clot who directed it does a wonderful job with the atmosphere, editing and the music.
Short films don't get any better than this!
When Pierre dies his creation was neglected and vandalised but thankfully it has been moved to a Outsider Art Museum called Fantabulosa? Kenneth Williams used to love it there.

What an amazing place! Thanks for the link.
this is fantastic i love the film and would love to see it in real time, its the sort of place my dad would love to be in he is always making things that move and has just used a old motor from a drill to power his model fairground ride, ill show him this im sure he will love it too thanks!
Thanks A and T. When I used to make VHS compilations to give to friends back in the 90's this one was always at the top of the list. It really is great now that you can find most things on YouTube or Vimeo etc.
