The Nose (film)

*The Nose* is a 2020 Finnish animated short film directed by Kalle Länsila, inspired by Nikolai Gogol's 19th-century short story. It humorously explores themes of identity and vanity through the absurd tale of a man whose nose detaches and gains a life of its own, leading to chaos. The film uses imaginative animation and satire to comment on societal norms, personal ego, and absurdity. Its surreal and humorous approach invites viewers to reflect on the nature of self-perception and the unexpected consequences of vanity.
