Curator’s notes

Leunig’s bewildered little Man is brought to life in this brief but succinct animation explaining how democracy really works. Director Andrew Horne makes the most of the one minute of film time to tell Leunig’s provocative story. What the audience does not see, however, is that there are 1,500 frames, or possible movements, in that one minute of film.
