This witty surreal short film, Something in the Air, explores the everyday trials and tribulations of the humble nose – an overworked body part with little say in what it has to smell.
From armpit aromas on the train, to sweaty lockers at the gym and other malodorous misadventures, the harrassed hooters depicted have to navigate a world full of smells they'd really rather avoid.
The film is driven by a cracking song that describes the pathos of being a human's only sensory organ that can't simply shut itself off – with eyelids, headphones and other barriers.
The fact that AI has created something with all the polish and feel of a traditional CGI animation… well, it’s just snot fair.
