Synopsis

Named after the 1956 Michael Snow film A to Z, the film is a barrage of hyperlinked TV commercials and magazine ads that's also a comedic social commentary on late consumer capitalism.

Accolades

At the 2019 Ottawa International [Animation Festival], the film won two awards - one in the Best Technique category for "its intelligent arrangement of source material and fascinating transitions" and the latter in the Non-Narrative Animation category stating that:

"with its compelling balance of control and chance, this ever-morphing collage just kept surprising us".
