Ferrets For Freedom

Produced by New York-based Curious Pictures, Ferrets For Freedom attacks Rudy Giuliani's policies and principles, pointing out that before 9/11 Giuliani was seen as a semi-fascist sometimes cross-dressing tyrant with a serious beef against exotic domesticated mammals. But whereas God takes a passive-aggressive approach, these ferrets speak directly to the camera.
After asking over 30 New Yorkers what they really thought about the former mayor -- in regards to both ferret and non-ferret-related issues -- director Joao Amorim worked with an editor to create a few cohesive clips that were then animated by an extensive team of professionals. "Conceptually, the idea was to create a short that was political, funny and effective as a protest piece," says Amorim. "Animation is a great tool to get young people into politics." Hopefully, Ferrets will also inspire more creatives to start using their talents in the political realm.
