Description: Release title in the U.S.: The nails.; Pacific Film Archive collection; non-circulating. Access by appt. only. CBPF.; Musik, Bruno Spoerri.; The director of this unusual animated film uses nails of various sizes to convey his impression of the population explosion. The small community of nails with which it begins gradually grows in size and has a colony break away from it, which eventually becomes larger than the original group. The nails rapidly propagate and soon fill all the available space. When there is no more room the nails start to rust and corrode. The constant multiplication conjures up images of relentless overcrowding.; PFA 1604-01-14807. D0320; PFA 1604-01-14806. D0320; Exhibited at the 8th annual Tournée of Animation.; PFA 1604-01-14807.
