Cheatin'
Directed by Bill Plympton
Produced by Bill Plympton Studios
A surreal, darkly comedic adult animation about a couple's love tested by jealousy and deception, told through magical body-swapping and identity confusion.
In a fateful bumper car collision, Jake and Ella meet and become the most loving couple in the long history of romance. But when a scheming "other" woman drives a wedge of jealousy into their perfect courtship, insecurity and hatred spell out an untimely fate. With only the help of a disgraced magician and his forbidden "soul machine", Ella takes the form of Jake's numerous lovers, desperately fighting through the malfunction and deceit as they try to reclaim their destiny.
