It features Romanian band Fanfare Ciocărlia's song "Asfalt Tango." The film was produced and created by Platige Image, a VFX company.

Plot

[edit]

Fallen Art presents the story of General AI, a self-proclaimed artist. His art, however, consists of a deranged method of stop motion photography, where the individual frames of the movie are created by photographs made by Dr. Johann Friedrich, depicting the bodies of dead soldiers, pushed down by Sergeant Al from a giant springboard onto a slab of concrete.
