Samurai Jew, by Nadav Nakhmani.

A kosher hero fights off ninja pigs to protect the traditional holiday jelly doughnut (sufganiya). Thus begins "Samurai Jew": the first chapter in the adventures of the "Jewish super warrior" by Jerusalem-based animator Nadav Nachmani.

Nachmani recently completed his animation studies at Bezalel Academy of Fine Arts and is now working as an independent filmmaker. His graduation film, Moving Pictures, is currently being screened at film festivals around the world. He is amazing! See his work here.

Oh, and Happy Hanukkah!
