Dead weight (2024) 8 min drawn animation, Tv-paint.
Three men, on their way in a descending balloon over an icy sea, need to get rid of some weight. After a vote, the two men throw the third man out of the basket to reduce weight, intent on saving their lives.
The victim, initially strongly opposed to the solution, clings to a long line below the balloon. He refuses to let go.
Dødvekt
Tre menn, på vei i en synkende luftballong over iskaldt hav, må kvitte seg med vekt. Basert på en flertallsavgjørelse fra to av mennene, kaster de tredjemann ut av kurven for å minske vekten i luftballongen og for på den måten berge livet.
Den ofrede, som i utgangpunktet var sterkt imot denne løsningen, klarer å klamre seg fast i en lang line som henger under ballongen. Han nekter å slippe taket.
