Bretislav Pojar's animated short explores the human phenomenon of resorting to violence over reason. The cubes live happily amongst themselves until one of them encounters a ball. War erupts and they fight until they all become the same again - this time in the form of hexagons. All is right in the world until one of them stumbles upon a triangle… Winner of the 1973 Grand Prix du Festival for Short Film at the International Film Festival in Cannes.
Directed by Bretislav Pojar - 1972 | 7 min

What an awesome video! This should have like 10 million views. We could all learn a lot from this video on how to treat one another, and how silly it is to dislike someone just based solely on their appearance. Thanks for the upload!! 💯💯💯💯

This reminds me of what's going on here in America. Democrats and republicans fighting each other, instead of just working together.
