Virtuoso animated satire on the Olympic Games as a media spectacle. In the form of a news broadcast, the strangest sports, rituals and participants are included. The maker invited several animation artists to provide contributions to this truly colourful procession. Fun. Great fun.

Cinema Keiba/JAPAN WORLD CUP is a fictional horse race 3D CG video series promoted/held by The Japan Racing Association since 2010. The videos were created by Mashima Riichirou and Jinni's Animation Studio. The race itself is presented as a 1600m G1 race on turf held in Tokyo Racecourse. It features a colorful cast of horses and non-horses racing each other in a extremely chaotic fashion. The result of the race is random with all outcomes being recorded in the DVD.
