What happens

Cosmos Laundromat: First Cycle, developed under the code name Project Gooseberry, is 2015 animated absurdist science fantasy short film directed by Mathieu Auvray, written by Esther Wouda, and produced by Ton Roosendaal. It is the Blender Institute's 5th "open movie" project, and was made utilizing the Blender software. The film focuses around a depressed and suicidal sheep named Franck who is offered "all the lives he ever wanted" by a mysterious salesman named Victor. On August 10, 2015, it was released to YouTube. The film was originally intended to kickstart a feature-length film. A short film sequel was written and designed but never brought to production. In 2020, Roosendaal announced that the one film would be the total of the project. The film itself, along with the other Blender Foundation "open movies," was released under the Creative Commons Attribution License. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
