2 conclusions I make while watching. 1 he should probably get rid of that vase. 2 I think it's a metaphor on how there will allways be problems that we obsess over. When one is gone another will take it's place. We can easily forget about our past problems, but we should allways expect more to rise in there place.

Spot on about both conclusions.

Just imagine being in peace in home and suddenly, an extradimensional form of life, in a scary inexpressive shape of an alphabet letter, starts to bother you with unknown intentions... Creepy.

This was my first experimental short I watched at school early 70's. Fantastic! Love it! From that day on I was (still am) a experimental shorts collector. I have a lot in 16mm at home

This has a sort of Shel Silverstein vibe. A is for Annoying B is for Bothering...

I thought of Monty Python! But yes, Shel Silverstein. Or maybe dystopian Sesame Street! 😂

English translation of short: "Grand Price of Animated Film - Oberhaunsen Festival " "I was a lone boy, in peace, nor happy, nor sad, before installed itself in the heart of my house a monster which sneak in, [unsure about this word], crushes... " [end] "... sadly... the monster 'B' waited at the door... and the letters of the alphabet are more than 26, more than 26... the alphabet is a cycle... the alphabet is unable to be tired"

Boy, was this hard to find. I remember watching this a while ago, and just remembered it. It's so difficult to try to find a film that's name is one of the most common words in the english language by searching.

The film's name is simply "A", that's a letter not a word. Perhaps that's why you had difficulty finding the film!🤣

That makes so much sense now- going back and forth, trying to get the letters out but in the way getting defeated

To A or not to A? That is the question; whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or....
