There is something really quite creepy about this detailed short feature. A gent is sitting at his desk when a manifestation of the letter 'A' appears in his room. Try as he might, it will not budge. He tries coaxing, cajoling, threatening - even dynamite, but not only doesn't that shift it but it seems to ensure that it becomes angry and starts to retaliate - quite violently, too. It soon becomes a war of attrition, but what might the outcome be? Actually, I guessed what that might be, early on - but that was a fluke as this quickly paced and crafted cut-out style of animation manages to evocatively convey increasing senses of bemusement-cum-frustration-cum-fear at the hands of this inanimate vowel that proves quite contagious for the viewer too.
