In the summer of 2000 in Hollywood, Spielberg's Dreamworks Film Corp. made the film "Chicken Run" with Nick Park, the great master of clay-figure animation, and it became a big hit. A chicken was the main character, and the story unfolded like the masterpiece "The Great Escape." Thirty-five years ago, Mushi Production created an animated work in which a chicken was the main character and a rebellion between the rulers and the ruled eventually escalated into a great war. Despite the scale of the story, the film ran for only three minutes. The ability to depict the endless repetition of war in human history in just three minutes is a unique feature of short animation, relying on exaggeration and great imagination.

Where it came from
Tabako to Hai, or Tobacco and Ashes, was produced by Mushi Production in 1965 as a short animated film. It stands as a notable example of the experimental and socially conscious work emerging from Osamu Tezuka’s studio during the mid-1960s, a period when Mushi Production sought to push the boundaries of Japanese animation beyond mainstream television series.
The film serves as a poignant, short-form narrative piece designed to explore themes of consumption and consequence through a stylized, minimalist lens. While it remains a deep cut within the studio's extensive catalog, its design reflects the artistic versatility of Tezuka’s team, who utilized the short format to experiment with visual metaphors that were less constrained by the commercial demands of longer, serialized productions.
