    This is quite a clever, if a bit basic, piece of animation centring around a man who turns up at a bar with a box. People of all shapes and sizes determine to find out what is in the thing - and plenty of drink is partaken too. It's got quite a fun, jazz-style score (from Shelley Manne) too before quite a quirky conclusion and it all dawns on us... Worth a watch.
