Time Rodent

Time rodent is a grotesque, strongly visually and colourfully stylized short film. Using distinctive animation, it tells the story of the world in 5, 10 or even 100,000 years in an abstract parable, a kind of civilizational, comic anti-fairy-tale about the gradual decay of the world and further possible evolutional transformation of its inhabitants. The protagonist of this story is a witness to this process – a half humanoid, half animal creature going through the individual periods of our future on earth. In his art Ondřej Švadlena pushes the boundaries of modern 3D animation, that can withstand even the most exacting critical standards. It builds on loose, emotional storytelling and impeccable 3D animation to evoke apocalyptic, romantic and surreal fantasies. He is connected to Czech culture by his dark humor and sense of absurdity which is reflected in his dizzyingly morbid, wordless carnivals of futuristic imagination and echoes of the atmosphere of communist era industrialism.
