Les Gobelins Week 2011: Lonely Dogs

For day three of Les Gobelins week, this short called 'Les chiens isoles,' in French centers around two men on an oil platform who appear to be friends. The problem is that news of one of the friends' possibly leaving the oil platform drives the other into state of delusional paranoia, which ultimately destroys everything they had worked toward building. This short is a creepy, well paced foray into the mind of a troubled man and his downward spiral. Lovely style, and fantastic animation as usual.
