The film is set in a small, isolated village where everyone has something to hide. The villagers spend about half their time trying to find out their neighbours’ secrets and the other half trying to preserve their own. One villager seems to have no interest in this way of life, and is considered an outsider. He comes under special scrutiny from the rest of the village, and his every move is noted…

The Village is a 14 minute long animation film that uses the traditional animation technique of cel and painted backgrounds. It has virtually no dialogue. It was funded by Channel Four Television and produced by Pam Dennis at Pizazz Pictures, London.
