Neighbours is an Academy Award-winning 1952 short film, written and made by Scottish-Canadian filmmaker, Norman McLaren, and the National Film Board of Canada. It uses the technique known as pixilation, involving live actors and stop motion. McLaren created the soundtrack of the film by scratching the edge of the film, creating various blobs, lines, and triangles which the projecter read as sound.

Plot

Two men (Jean Paul Ladouceur and Gary Munro) live peacfully side by side in houses made of cardboard, but when a flower blooms between both their houses, they fight each other to the death over the ownership of the single small flower.
