The first short story from The Stone on the Road series. In the world of Numbers, everything is subject to a strict system and the supreme ruler – Zero. Its greatness grows in proportion to the other numbers’ fear. The other numbers are inherently bigger and more significant than Zero, but only Zero has a voice, which makes it great. The film uses the cutout animation technique and resembles Terry Gilliam's collage animation, which became the hallmark of the Monty Python comedy troupe.
