A short gif that’s a lovely homage to surrealist cinema from The Vanished World of Gloves (1982) by Jirí Barta via frenchtwist via gifmovie:

Using an array of gloves in different styles and from different historical periods, the film is a short history of the cinema - from silent movies via pastiches of Buñuel and Fellini and Close Encounters of the Third Kind to a futurist junkyard where tin cans become animated police cars in a city of urban decay.
