Sexteens

This Spanish-language short was made using stop-motion animation and features very simple sets and characters.

The film begins with three teenage girl dolls sitting on a bench. Without using actual words but sort of a Sims-type speech ("Bla, bla, bla"), the first girl describes her perfect man. Then, suddenly, he appears---as does a bed...
