Surogat (known in English as Ersatz and The Substitute) is a 1961 Yugoslavian animated comedy short film by Croatian director Dušan Vukotić, produced by Zagreb Film, then a Yugoslav film production company. The film is also known by several other names in other languages: Cyррогат, Der Ersatz, Le Succēdanē and Surrogatto.
Plot
A man takes a trip to the beach and every object he brings with him, no matter how unlikely, is inflatable.
Reception and legacy
The film won an Academy Award for Short Subjects (Cartoons) in 1962.
It was featured in animation historian Jerry Beck's The 50 Greatest Cartoons, where it appears one of 57 "Other Great Cartoons" that did not qualify for the main list but had nonetheless received "a substantial number of votes" as honorable mentions. The Academy Film Archive preserved Ersatz in 2012.
According to David Silverman, animator and producer for The Simpsons, the character designs for the in-show cartoon "Worker and Parasite", in the episode "Krusty Gets Kancelled", were based on Surogat. Simpsons creator Matt Groening said "Worker and Parasite" was one of his favorite moments from the show.
