The Trouble With Igor is a Zen-like tale, or as close to "Zen-like" as one can get without actually being Zen, but it's definitely a tale of a bald mutant/hunchback/zombie's epic journey, a wordless cartoon novel, told entirely in pantomime. Throughout his odyssey, the poor hunchback is just looking for a morsel of food and a shady tree under which to eat, but this tragic hero has a heart of gold unfortunately accompanied by the touch of death. The well-meaning bald-mute-mutant tries to help everyone and everything he meets, but things can and do go horribly awry.
