One man band

In the short film One Man Band, one of the themes that I can get from this film is greed. This can be shown by the two street musicians. Both of them try to get attention from a little girl that has one gold coin. They play their music together until the musical got wild and make the little girl got scared and the gold coin drops from her hand and fall into the drain. Finally, because of greed, they both did not get the coin.

Besides that, another theme in this short film is revenge. This is shown by the little girl. After the gold coin fall into the drain, she gets angry and wants a violin from the street musician. Surprisingly, she can play the violin like a maestro and someone give a bag of gold coin to her. She takes that bag and went to the fountain. She picks two coins and tempts the street musician but then she throws it to the fountain. Finally, she feels satisfied and walks to her home.
