cockroach

“Cockroach” is a handmade, cameraless animated film constructed with basic materials found around the home – newspaper, ink and Kool-Aid. Using cockroaches as a metaphor for language, it chronicles the pervasiveness and endurance of these primordial creatures. Text by Christian Cotroneo (“It’s a bug’s life in downtown Toronto,” originally printed in the Toronto Star) is used to create the soundtrack.
