Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Moto Perpetuo is a 1981 animated short film (7 1/2 minutes) from Hungary, directed by Bela Vajda. It was produced by Hungary's Pannonia Film Studio.A man walks through the lobby of an office building. He attempts to board the elevator, but fails. It soon becomes apparent that the twin elevators—one going up on the left, one going down on the right—are not actual elevators, but windows on the human experience. As the man goggles with astonishment the whole range of human life and civilization plays out in the two elevators. People get married, trains careen off bridges, bicyclists race by, nuclear bombs go off, The Beatles play music, and more.The title is the Italian for "perpetual motion", referring in this context to perpetuum mobile, a musical term referring to music played non-stop at a very fast tempo. The score for this short is a violin playing at just such a fast tempo.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

Ear Trumpet | |
| Moto Perpetuo (Animation) / int_62700738 | comment |
Ear Trumpet: One sight gag has a reproduction of the iconic "His Master's Voice" painting of a dog listening to a gramophone record—except that the dog has an Ear Trumpet in his ear, basically using a trumpet to listen to a trumpet. | |

The Everyman | |
| Moto Perpetuo (Animation) / int_6de438eb | comment |
The Everyman: The man has little characterization, and basically is just there to react to all the bizarre and surreal things he sees in the elevators. | |

Knife-Throwing Act | |
| Moto Perpetuo (Animation) / int_8ee823b6 | comment |
Knife-Throwing Act: The man sees a mostly naked lady in the elevator shaft. He eagerly jumps in, only to jump back out when a bunch of knives from a Knife-Throwing Act fly into the frame and stick in the background behind the woman. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Moto Perpetuo (Animation) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: One gag has a man standing still, next to a coat rack where his hat is hanging. When an identical coat rack passes by in the other elevator shaft, the man takes his hat off the rack, steps across the divide, and hangs his hat on the other rack. Later this joke is repeated in reverse, with the man crossing back in the opposite direction and hanging his hat back up where it was in the beginning. | |
