A man with a moustache and beige mac wonders why even the caterpillars have a better sex life than he! It's just not fair so walking past a sex shop one afternoon, he decides to improvise and buy a blow-up lover. Now getting it up isn't as easy as he'd imagined so a bicycle pump is drafted in to help. Finally inflated (with helium by the looks of things) we enter into what looks like a bit of a spoof of the "Red Balloon" from 1956, and boy does this girl persist! Home, outdoors, work - he cannot shake her off! He can, however, lose his job and outrage the neighbours in the park when he takes her for a walk and into the path of some thugs who rather brutally solve his problem for him. Or do they actually just make matters worse? It's quite funny for a few minutes, this - it's an astonishing the array of people who have a doll of their own, and we can only marvel at what they get up to with them. A fetishist's wet dream and an ultimately dreamy denouement?

Animation is a form of visual storytelling that involves creating visual art and motion through the use of various techniques and technologies. In animation, images are manipulated to create the illusion of movement, bringing characters, objects, and environments to life. Animation can encompass a wide range of styles, themes, and intended audiences, making it a diverse and versatile form of storytelling.

The short form refers to creative works characterized by their brevity and concise storytelling. Unlike full-length feature films, short films have a running time of less than 45 minutes, while TV shorts have a running time of less than 22 minutes.
