A little sativa silicone II, a lick of hypnotoad, and it all makes operatic sense and sound. So I hear.

I’m getting slight deja-vu. The video is three years old, but I don’t see a pre-Boing. Possibly someone posted it, or maybe a work-in-progress preview at some point?

Was the rabbit intentionally leaving an unexposed roll of film at 1:08 or did the animator not know that the leader isn’t supposed to stick out when you rewind the film?

Looks like a Henry Darger rip-off.

In the distant future, exposed photographic film will have the leader sticking out.

I’d leave the leader out sometimes. Like when switching from BW to colour slide (or vice versa), saving a half-full film for later. Or when the container of that particulate type/brand was a PITA to open in the darkroom.
You’d have to make sure not to mix them up, of course.
Accidental double exposures can result in spectacular pictures, though.
