The Cat Came Back

An educational short film featuring the character of Luxo Jr. demonstrating the concept of "front" and "back."

Produced for Glass Eye Pix as part of their 2008 Creepy Christmas Online Film Festival, in which each short was inspired by the inhabitants of a Christmas diorama advent calendar. Each filmmaker was assigned a specific date and given the props that were used in that window to use in their short. This is the eighth film in the series.

The animation tells about the adventures of the funny character Parasolka on the hunt.

A ridiculous and funny man nicknamed Parasolka have ancillary jobs in the circus, which he is trying to do and simulteniously watch everything going on behind the scenes, as well as during performances. Once the actors get into a difficult situation, and to everyone's amazement it is Parasolka who helps them out, thus earning himself a clown job. And then the circus director sees how Parasolka deftly juggles behind the scenes, he immediately realizes to send him to the arena, so he in turn performs with the shows of a juggler, a strongman, and a magician, although he is not entirely successful, but the audience liked him and they were laughing. As a result, Parasolka became a circus clown.
