High in Lake Titicaca in the Andes Mountains, a large and homely frog once thrived, a species endemic to altitude and cold water named Telmatobius culeus. But over-collecting for human consumption, pollution and predation by introduced species have devastated the Titicaca water frog — which has a hard enough life as is, given its resemblance to a certain human sexual organ and the many unflattering nicknames that has spawned. In 2016, 10,000 frogs died all at once, and it wasn’t the first mass die-off this critically endangered species has experienced. This short film from The Redford Center shines a new light on these underappreciated animals, showing their amazing adaptability, crucial role in the aquatic ecosystem and what’s at stake — unless humans intervene.

The title of this documentary short refers to its three important elements: the personal tone (subjective narration), a story about a family of Roma origin, and Woody Allen, a highly-reputed filmmaker from an earlier generation whose subjectivity, American Jewish origins and family-related themes are equally important in his works.

Menno de Nooijer had previously collaborated on Paul's films, but this one marks the launch of a directors' team that lasts until today. Two man stick their heads through a decor, photographs revolve around their heads.

In 1989, this film was granted the jury award at the Holland Animation Film Festival. (filmcommission.nl)
