Synopsis:
Pierre, a Hole with a View, is a live action short film about love, obsession and eternal longing for the unattainable, but it doesn't take itself as serious as that. It follows the misadventures of a mouse, living in a hole in the wall, who falls madly in love with a beautiful human girl who has just moved in to the apartment. Will she acknowledge Pierre? Will she respond with love and affection? Maybe he should start by getting her to notice him first.
