A five episode series of shorts by Kunio Kato, director of the award winning short The House of Small Cubes.
Basically, a small series of surreal vignettes from an alternate world, accounting the journeys and experiences from Tortov Roddle, a "traveler from Tortalia" who rides a giant pig with long legs.
Despite its weirdness, the shorts has a rather gentle tone, feeling pretty much like a dream-like slice of life series, featuring a rather beautiful animation style, with each one of the episodes transmiting a gentle, melancholic vibe.
Kinda wish more of these shorts had been produced, leaving me wanting to see more adventures of Tortov Roddle as he explores the strange world where he lives.
