To a Man with a Big Nose
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
To a Man with a Big Nose is a 2D animated short film based on a poem by Spanish author Francisco de Quevedo. It is in essence a visual adaptation of Quevedo's sonnet.
The premise of the story deals with a man who is troubled because he is stuck with a disproportionally big nose. While we look at the portrait of this unfortunate man through the poem's comparisons and metaphors we realize that the nose is a character with a mind of its own that dominates the man attached to it. The attempts of the little man to get rid of the horrible nose end up in failure. The ode to the big nose takes us through a journey of fantastic transformations and turns, always dragging the poor man along. Finally, the dominant nose decides that it does not need the pathetic little man to survive and gets rid of him, leaving a man without a nose.
