A jolly black and white piglet is carelessly rolling about in its favourite black and white puddle, when suddenly some clean and neat inhabitants of the colourful world pass by. Driven by its ideal of beauty, the piglet follows them and becomes a part of them. But alas, soon it finds out it’s a trap and pigheaded as it is, manages to break “the frame”. Hooray! It’s free again, even though in black and white.
