★
The film is an artistically spare depiction of the Greek myth of Sisyphus, sentenced to eternally roll a stone up a mountain. The story is presented in a single, unbroken shot, consisting of a dynamic line drawing of Sisyphus, the stone, and the mountainside.

Sisyphus
The most beautifully uncomfortable short film in existence. The most perfect representation of one of the most important myths in human history, almost impossible to top. Everything I just witnessed was incredibly cathartic, and without a doubt one of the best animations ever made on celluloid.

Masterpiece.

98/100

Corto para salvar la racha de una peli/dia en mayo pero que también me sirve como introducción a la animación húngara y específicamente a Jankovics, con muchas ganas de ver Fehérlófia (Son of the White Mare) y Az ember tragédiája (Tragedy of Man)
