"The Plight of Clownana" is a short film written, directed and narrated by Chris Dowling. It is about a man who has a job as a store's dancing mascot that is half-clown, half-banana ("clown" + ban"ana" = Clownana). All is well until the neighboring adult book store creates their own dancing mascot, resulting in a comedic competition to determine which is the better one.
