In this short film, children start their own cultural revolution against the consumer society of the adults. Emperor Tomato Ketchup abolishes his short pants and goes out hunting adults. From the constitution of Tomato Ketchup, Article 1: Adults who contradict children, who use physical force, who provide too much protection, are to be scrapped from the voters register. Article 3: Adults who spoil our appetites, who ban us from smoking or drinking, who deny us freedom of expression and sexuality, are to be sentenced to death or eighty years in prison.
