Boundary Lines

Complete catalog record
“This is a film about imaginary lines that divide us as people.” Lines draw pictures of different objects as narrator illustrates that a line can mean many different things. Some cool animation of two boys fighting over a boundary line. They look like zombies. The boys grow up but still have a line that divides them. The line changes through time. Color lines, territory lines, cultural lines, moral lines, etc. A line is only an idea.
This was a film that Stapp made while working for the International Film Foundation and under contract with the US gov't. It is not from the 1960s, it was made in 1946/1947, and it is an example of an animated Marshall Plan film funded by the ECA.
