The Wanderer

Told without words, this surrealistic animation tale of supernatural power, temptation, greed and violence is adapted from Michel Tremblay's short story The Devil and the Mushroom. The plot involves a shrewd and sinister stranger who, through his knowledge of individuals' weaknesses, transforms a quiet, idyllic village into the scene of a phantasmagoric nightmare. One of a number of animated films drawn from well-known short stories. Film without words.
