2006-03-24Elephants Dream is the story of two strange characters exploring a capricious and seemingly infinite machine.

The film itself is released under the Creative Commons license, along with the entirety of the production files used to make it (roughly 7 Gigabytes of data). The software used to make the movie is the free/open source animation suite Blender along with other open source software, thus allowing the movie to be remade, remixed and re-purposed with only a computer and the data on the DVD or download.Big Buck Bunny
