In January, the Japanese children’s program Kinder TV broadcast a new series of short films called PUI PUI MOLCAR . The show introduces viewers to a world that is populated by cute, fuzzy guinea pigs that move around their city as cars on the roadways. It utilizes stop-motion techniques with wool felt dolls as the main characters, which are all carefully hand-sewn. With its cute imagery and simple storylines, it has been well-received by audiences online, especially in Japan and Taiwan.
So what about the name of the show? The term MOLCAR is a combination of morumotto , meaning guinea pigs in Japanese, and the word car. As for the words PUI PUI , they represent the squeaky sounds guinea pigs make.
The episodes last only a few minutes and don’t involve any dialogue, so they are easily accessible to international audiences. The animator and director, Tomoki Misato, hopes the world of wool felt guinea pig cars will help people relieve the stress and worry that come with life in busy modern cities. If you love guinea pigs, or just like cute things in general, check out PUI PUI MOLCAR !
