Amsterdam-based animator Nick Fox-Gieg is
currently enjoying YouTube fame with his darkly comic 1-year-old music video
"I Wanna Be Famous." But in his latest film, "The Foxhole
Manifesto" – a similarly sharp-witted animated piece, about God and its
many uses and exploitations adapted from the work of slam-poet Jeffrey McDaniel
– Fox-Gieg proves he's no one-hit wonder. In fact, the California Institute of
the Arts grad has had short films shown at the Rotterdam and Ottawa film
festivals, at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and on television in Canada, Israel
and the Netherlands. For more info, check out http://www.fox-gieg.com/
