Description
"Pitt's films resemble a dream. Things exist out of proportion, shapes shift, characters appear and disappear. Yet as in a dream, these things also rest on reality and are a total celebration of what makes life that jumble where joy and sorrow intermingle. These are extraordinary works of art that lovers of animated films or unique cinematic experiences simply cannot afford to miss."
— Steven Snyder, TimeOut
"Asparagus undoubtedly represents a feat of contemporary animation cinema. As a measure of its audacity, its profound honesty and its uncompromising personal vision, the film begins with an act of defecation and ends with fellatio. Metaphors, in this case, for creative impulses exhausted and renewed."
— Amos Vogel, Film Comment
