Film of shadow puppets:

Technical Director: Sverre Fredriksen

Music:  Li Daiguo

“Cloacinae” is the name of the roman goddess of the first sewer of modern civilization, the Cloaca Maxima, in Rome. It is also an animation about finance and hygiene, two very important but mainly invisible systems for every society.

We follow the journey of a cent – who lands in the sewer to face new values.

Shadow Puppets inspired on extreme homo economicus characters such as Dominique Strauss Khan and Donald Trump and on characters based on small coins such as the penny, the quarter, 5 cents, etc.
