This animated film depicts a hairdresser in a town where all of the citizens have plants on their heads instead of hair.
REVIEW
The animation is beatiful in this unusual short film. The drawings look like charcoal pencil and are set against a stark white background. The titular hairdresser in an unusual town prunes, snips and trims the foliage- and flower-laden heads of her neighbors. But then a phone begins to ring. A mysterious and sinster stranger at the other end of the line seems to have misanthropic motives. The sound of the phone is jarring, grating, unsettling. The specter of evil punctuates this short, leaving the viewer with a sense of disorientation.
