Graffitiger | A Short Film by Libor Pixa

This witty and slightly melancholic short animated movie tells a story of a lonesome, painted graffiti-tiger that lives on walls and facades of Prague's houses. The city full of filthy streets and corners covered with graffiti is a savage jungle where the tiger seeks his way back to the love he lost. Both thrilling and funny the story is processed with attractive combined technology ? 2D hand-lettered animation and camera shots with real actors.
