Metamorphosis is a Canadian short comedy-drama film, directed by Barry Greenwald and released in 1975.[1] A satirical parable about the rat race, the film centres on a man (Bob Green) who is bored with his daily routine, and decides one day to undress and dress himself again in the elevator on his way to work; successfully accomplishing the task, he sets greater challenges to accomplish during the nine-floor elevator ride, culminating in a day when he lives his entire life in the span of the trip and is dead by the time he reaches the ground floor.[1]
Greenwald made the film as a student project while studying film at Conestoga College.[2]
