A cartoon about a stamp-collector called Carl. He loves his stamps and his two-dimensional world. His wife understandably finds Carl very boring and would rather go out dancing and get some air under her wings in the real world. But the world frightens the stamp-collector, who is shocked by all the wars and violence he sees on television. One day he receives a postorder-advert for a cardboard dog that becomes a new dimension in
Carl's world, meanwhile the wife stamps off.
Carl's world, meanwhile the wife stamps off.
