Film Synopsis
E is for Evolution is an animated short. It consists out of 26 short episodes about evolution. Each Episode has its own point of view and interpretation due to evolution. The film deals with several topics and questions. For example the development from reptiles to mammals and the instinct of procreation. Was all life on Earth created by God or was it just randomly developed by nature with a method we call evolution? And what about the future? Will humans and machines merge together in one new lifeform? These all questions and topics are merged in everyday stories and stereotypes. The alphabet builds a chronological base of the film. To each letter there is an episode. In the end the film results in an collaged overall picture. A small ABC of evolution.
