Plot

The amazing story of the animograph, a machine created in France in the sixties by the cartoonist and self-taught inventor Jean Dejoux (1922-2015), whose creation was intended to revolutionize the animation industry.

The 'animograph' was the first cartoon machine created in the 1960s by self-taught French cartoonist and inventor Jean Dejoux. Though it revolutionised the animation industry and titillated professionals all the way to the US, this innovative, hand-crafted invention was inexplicably abandoned well before the advent of computer graphics.—ARTE
