Village of Idiots (7.2)

Film · 1999 · 12 min · Animation

Based on a Jewish folk tale adapted by playwright John Lazarus, this animated short tells the story of Shmendrik, a simpleton living in a small Polish village. Weary of daily life in his native Chelm, Shmendrik sets out on a quest for knowledge that brings him to a new Chelm, a place eerily reminiscent of his old Chelm. An amusing take on our tendency to romanticize what we don't have.

Regie: Eugene Fedorenko, Rose Newlove

Mit Jack Newman, Nicholas Rice
