A girl sees a rabbit running across a field. Thinking it would make an
excellent muff, she pursues it with a knife. It escapes her, but her
brother kills it. She slices it open, and out pops an animated idol
that, when bothered by insects, turns them into feathers, bottles of
ink, and jewels. Thinking of the riches of royalty, the boy and girl put
the idol outside in a vat of plum jam and proceed to eviscerate various
farm animals to draw hundreds of wasps and flies. The idol complies,
and soon they've filled a bedroom with boxes of jewels. Off they go to
town to trade the feathers and ink for more jam, but while they're gone,
the idol is busy. Comeuppance may await. 2006 BAFTA Awards - Best Short Animation - Nominee
