Tusk is an animated short film about a mammoth discovered in a frozen block of ice. After it is defrosted, the mammoth finds it difficult to adjust to life in a strange future. This four-minute short features a colourful and beautiful animation style that works well with the story. The narrative of Tusk is relatable to most audiences; it plays on the idea of feeling different and not feeling like you have a place. The use of this narrative this makes it easier for the audience to relate to the main character… even if it is an animated mammoth.
