Fresh Guacamole is a short film created by PES. This film was released in 2012 and it is an animated film that is just one minute long. The film has no dialogue or voice-over, the entire film is told through images and sound effects. The film "Fresh Guacamole" will leave a lasting impression on the viewer even though it is such a short film.

The film begins with a man opening a brown paper bag, which is revealed to contain a grenade. He proceeds to chop off the top of the grenade and alongside with it the avocado in half, scooping out the contents and mixing them in a molcajete, which is a traditional Mexican mortar and pestle. After mashing the guacamole, the man adds the touch of a cherry tomato and pulls out a hand grenade pin to mix it all together as it explodes in a shower of confetti.

The animation is beautifully crafted and extremely detailed. The attention to detail is impressive, you can see the texture of the avocado and the cherry tomato; they look so real that it almost seems like you could reach out and grab them. The charm of the short film comes from the innovative character and absurd visual humor. The film is visually stunning and incredibly creative.

The film plays with the idea of taking ordinary objects and mixing them together to create something extraordinary. In this case, the man takes the mundane act of creating guacamole and mixes it up with a dangerous weapon, the grenade. The result is a striking juxtaposition between two elements - one that is meant to be delicious and the other that is used to destroy.

The film's use of sound is equally impressive. Every sound is created entirely from everyday objects, from the sound of the grenade pin being pulled out to the sound of the cherry tomato being sliced. The sound effects are in perfect harmony with the animation, enhancing the film's overall impact.

The story or theme of the film is not apparent immediately, as the viewer is left to draw their own conclusions. It can be interpreted as the processing of something small and mundane, such as an avocado, can be turned into something bigger and better, and become a party hit. Furthermore, this kind of expansion when done by creative minds can create extraordinary results.

Overall, Fresh Guacamole is an astonishing example of how creativity can turn anything into something spectacular. PES's films usually involve inanimate objects into something completely surprising and Fresh Guacamole is no exception. For just one minute, this amusing little film packs a punch that will leave an everlasting impression. It takes an everyday routine and turns it upside down to create something new, imaginative, and highly entertaining. This short film won the hearts of viewers and critics alike and it was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film in 2013. It is highly recommended for anyone interested in animation, creativity or just good humor.

Fresh Guacamole is a 2012 animated movie. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 7.4.
