Animation Short

Mr. Button Skelterstrung is a short animated film created to no particular purpose but that of innocence, where we trace the journey of this unsuspecting cookie through a sea of buttons.

The Soundtrack we used is "J'y Suis Jamais Alle" which is the Original Soundtrack to the film "Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain," because we admire it very much.
