Small Heroes
Matikka Tommi
Animated superheroes are running, bouncing and flying over the rooftops of Dakar like in a platformer video game. They are not in control of their skills, and each time they take off, they end up falling all the way to the ground. The soundtrack imitates the sounds of classic video games.
