Plots(1)

In the middle of the night, all the toys in a child's bedroom come to life to participate in a dazzling show, each doing what it does best. Topping the bill is the clown's "dialogue" with toy bricks on a tightrope, probably one of the most inventive animation etudes ever created. (Karlovy Vary International Film Festival)
