Synopsis

As the work day begins, people spill out of their houses and in turn spill garbage all over their pristine avenue. A streetcleaner (who happens to be an elephant!) cleans up after these messy humans, happily sweeping his way through the day and spending his earnings on bananas. One day he sees a billboard for a bicycle, and becomes fixated – he must get his trunk on that red two-wheeler! Fun, touching and beautifully drawn, Olesya Shchukina’s short is sure to delight.
