Carmen Torero z „Carmen-Suity”
A miniature film set to classical music. A cart drives down a gray city street. Behind the houses, instead of the sun, a spinning wheel emerges, from which a broken thread falls into a nearby puddle. A little girl runs down the street. Suddenly, she stumbles and falls into the puddle. Tears from the animated houses fall into the puddle. The drops of tears "revive" the thread, which transforms into a fairy-tale skein and weaves a new dress for the girl. A spinner with a spinning wheel appears and weaves colorful strands around everything. Flowers bloom in the windows of the houses, and the gray walls are covered with vivid colors. The girl, carried by the skein, soars above the houses of what is now a colorful town.
