The Sound of Music
Not to be confused with the syrupy musical of the same name, this SOUND OF MUSIC is one of animator Phil Mulloy’s ghastliest portrayals of a culture deformed by violence and greed. Wolf works by day as a window washer. On his way up the skyscraper he witnesses scenes of degradation: domestic murders,...Start your free trial to watch

Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery
Two gentle astronauts develop feelings for one another as they drift into deep space. Though they know they’ll never again see their rotten spouses back on Earth, the sanctity of their marriage vows keeps them apart. Beyond the surreal nightmares and insect insurrections, Phil Mulloy’s short lampoons the...Start your free trial to watch
-
Thou Shalt Not Commit Blasphemy
Phil Mulloy’s allegorical take on the commandment against blasphemy is itself deeply irreverent. Yawning through a church service, God amuses Himself with human suffering. One of His followers appropriates the church cross to protect his home from a merciless storm. The town judges him harshly, but not...Start your free trial to watch

Honour Thy Father and Thy Mother
Phil Mulloy doesn’t illustrate the Fourth Commandment so much as obliterate it. The parents are pill-popping, cell phone-talking creeps sitting pretty in an oil field. Typical adults in Mulloy’s dystopic universe. Their young son draws his own lesson from their abuse.Start your free trial to watch

Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness
Nathan and Emmylou may be Joesville’s holiest couple but their arousing dreams say otherwise. Phil Mulloy’s sharp fable interprets the commandment against bearing false witness in terms of the unconscious. More earnest than most of the animator’s other shorts, THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS pictures...Start your free trial to watch
-
Thou Shalt Not Covet Thy Neighbour's Goods
Animator Phil Mulloy interprets the penultimate commandment as a lesson in economic imperialism. An American capitalist drives up to a little Mexican hacienda to begin manufacturing his ingenious new torture device. Everything goes along swimmingly until the ingrates learn politics.Start your free trial to watch

Thou Shalt Not Kill
“That year the rains never arrived in Arkansas and old Josh’s crops failed. When at last it did rain, his wife Henna was struck down by lightning.” In animator Phil Mulloy’s sacrilegious take on the Job story, the forsaken man does not accept his fate meekly.Start your free trial to watch
-
Thou Shalt Not Covet Thy Neighbour's Wife
The tenth commandment would seem to provide easy fodder for Phil Mulloy’s twisted imagination. Instead, he plunges further out-of-bounds than expected for this epic conclusion to his “Ten Commandments” series. Buck pines for his neighbor’s wife, Sally, but Sally only loves her dog. But what if he could...Start your free trial to watch
-
The Wind of Changes
Based on the wry recollections of Romanian violin virtuoso Alex Balanescu (who also contributes the soaring score), Phil Mulloy’s surprisingly heartfelt animation contemplates the meaning of artistic freedom. Balanescu recounts three distinct stages of his life: his first violin in Soviet-controlled...Start your free trial to watch
-
The Chain
Phil Mulloy’s contribution to a series of animated films commemorating the Universal Declaration of Human Rights takes a characteristically dark view of the human condition. The discovery of a treasure map precipitates individual fisticuffs, declarations of war and all-out genocide. Lustrous chalk figures and symbolically...Start your free trial to watch
-
The Sexlife of a Chair
Phil Mulloy’s witty exercise in the power of suggestion uses rudimentary animated drawings of chairs to diagram a Kinsey Report's worth of sexual behaviors. Without recourse to narrative or human identification, the film’s tableaux nonetheless plunge the depths of desire. By turns desperately sad and...Start your free trial to watch
-
Intolerance I
Phil Mulloy’s acerbic space odyssey kicks off with scientists recovering a roll of celluloid from the distant planet of Zog. The public is warned of the film, “Inevitably, our own notions of what is moral, of what is sexually decent, of what and who we are, are brought into question.” The same might be said of any of Mulloy’s...Start your free trial to watch

Intolerance II
Phil Mulloy’s multipart sci-fi satire picks up steam as the warring humans and zogs pass each other in outer space en route to their respective invasions. While the human astronauts remain distracted by their girlfriends’ underwear, the zogs touch down on earth and launch a subversive operation seemingly borrowed from THE...Start your free trial to watch
