Van bárki is, aki ne emlékezne a Szombat esti filmkoktélok különös sztárjára, az időnként néhány percre felbukkanó Menő manóra?

Vonalemberkénk hosszú szünet után visszatér a képernyőre - ahol is érthetetlen, ám annál kifejezőbb halandzsanyelvén perlekedik alkotójával, méltatlankodik az elé táruló váratlan helyzetek közepette, zsémbeskedik, csodálkozik, és csak lépked előre, hogy egy óvatlan pillanatban leessen a tábla széléről…

Carlo Bonomi ... All voices (voice) Osvaldo Cavandoli ... Himself (hand only) Fine Art of Simplicity. Each of the less than 3 minutes long shorts is initiated and terminated one-dimensionally, restricted to a single line (la linea in Italian), while the middle part gets more "complex", both visually and aurally, thanks to the noisy little fellow whose two-dimensional adventures we're in to follow. Moody little chap is a collection of extremes. Redrawn (reborn!) at the start of each new episode, enthusiastic about his (coming to) existence, stretching and happily sighing out of contentment, not before long he's, at first curious about, then eventually puzzled with, and finally upset with the usual absence of the line ahead, finding himself either irritated or delighted with the easily recognizable line gap-filling shape, subsequently outlined, or alternatively deleted by the only other permanently accompanying character, pencil-holding hand, apparently belonging to his author, Osvaldo Cavandoli.
