Title
The Question
Date
1967 (C20th)
Description
Animated satirical short about the 'big question', the meaning of life. A man carries his question mark with him on a journey to find his answer, which he does not find in religion, patriotism, art, science, money, self-discovery, or war. In the end, he discovers that the key to happiness is of course love. Made in 1967 by the Halas and Batchelor animation studio.
