Here's a quick little film that puts a new spin
on "the horrors of smoking". The three-minute stop-motion film is by Alireza Hashempour, made while the Tehran-born, freelance 2-D
and stop-motion filmmaker was still a student at Filmakademie
Baden-Württemberg in Ludwigsburg. One might read the short as a wish-fulfillment
film: who hasn't wished, at some point in their life, that the jackasses that
see fit to throw their non-biodegradable cigarette stubs everywhere wouldn't get
their due? (And we say that as an occasional smoker.)
In any event, In One Drag is well-made and
stylistically assured, funny and horrific, and definitely doesn't overstay its
welcome. Enjoy.
