Monkeylove

A lovelorn boy in a monkey suit yearns for his lost love. He demands that his love, who is never named, return his heart to him, as he spends the days engaging in seemingly pointless activity and asking questions without answers. Changes in film stock indicate flashbacks between the real world and the dream world, in which we see the boy being filmed by the filmmaker.
