Blending fantasy and reality, this animated short is a bold inquiry into an as yet unresolved problem - the nature of human identity. When a scientist creates a machine that can make copies of physical objects, including humans, a number of ethical questions arise. Is the technique moral? What of its safety? A film by Oscar-winning filmmaker John Weldon (who also wrote the catchy banjo tune that punctuates the story's changing moods).

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Nice effects though.
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
This mesmerizing little Canadian gem has popped up on the Cartoon Network and is hard to come by elsewhere, but make the effort if you can. John Weldon gives us a modern day fable that's both consistently funny and genuinely disturbing. It concerns an amazing invention that's initially intended as a form of "Beam Me Up Scotty" transportation, but ultimately leads to a revelation that could keep the current human cloning debate going on forever. A truly thought-provoking flicker.
This marvelous short from the National Film Board of Canada is sometimes funny, very creative and entertaining, but ultimately leaves you pondering some very serious subjects and it stayed with me for quite a while after I saw it the first time. It shows on O Canada on the Cartoon Network from time to time. Most Recommended.
