I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Awesome Movie
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

He has made shorts as "The Flower Lovers" (1970) and "One day in life" (1982), which is my personal favorites (together with "Krek"). He is also responsible for "Balthasar - The Inventor of Shoes", which inspired to a whole TV-series with Balthasar in the seventies.Bordo has in "Krek" managed to catch the absurdities of militarism and the life in the army with graceful and direct slapstick humor. A must see for anyone who loves animation!!
