O Diário de Tortov Roddle

His name is Tortov Roddle, and he is a traveler from Tortalia. Along with his unusually large companion of a pig (seemingly a relative of the Dalí elephants), the slender Tortov travels from place to place, always finding a new and beautiful adventure at his destination. These include islands carried by frogs, fish that live in cups of coffee and a land where a movie is projected on the back of a giant bear. It all makes for a quiet adventure of peaceful contemplation. There is no dialogue, only inserts from Tortov´s diary.

The episodes were originally produced for the internet in a solo effort by the director and only animator. There´s a total of nine episodes of which the first six constitute the original 16 min. movie:

1. The City of Light
2. Midnight Cafe
3. The Little Town's Movie Gathering
4. Moonlight Travellers
5. The Melancholy Rain
6. The Flower and the Lady
