The struggle of the weak to survive the brutes is ancient. In the Paleolithic jungle, a mischievous little monkey faces dangerous predators. An epilogue, taking place centuries later, reminds us that civilization was not founded on good feelings.

Vincent Paronnaud
Vincent, aka Winshluss, is a figure of the French underground comics. His personal touch is provocative, marked with black and quirky humor, and with an uncommon liking for immorality and for appropriation of myths and social stereotypes. With his friends and colleagues Felder and Cizo, he has founded the magazine of comics Ferraille Illustré. He published several comics books - among which "Smart Monkey" (2004) and "Wizz et Buzz" (2007) – and directed short and feature films.
"Poulet aux prunes" (2011) / "Once Upon A Time There Was Oil" (2010) / "Persepolis" (2007) / "O'Boy, what Nice Legs" (2004) / "Raging Blues" (2003)
