A Story of Cigarettes

Finished

煙り草物語

A small man on a desk confronts a girl with a traditional Japanese hairstyle, declaring that "women descended from tobacco." The girl laughs and traps him under a glass. Angered, the man puffs on a cigarette in a pipe and blows smoke at her. She takes the cigarette and hides it under a book. When the man threatens her with a gun, she throws the cigarette into the yard. The man becomes furious and tries to shoot, but the gun misfires. In the end, he begins telling her the story of tobacco's origins.

This short film combines paper cutout animation with live-action shots, and is the oldest recovered work by Noburou Oofuji.
