This is a cute and really well-made animation called The Dot and the Line: A Romance in Lower Mathematics that some of you have probably seen before. The story is in reference to the book Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions, which we actually have to read for this class. The author of the story is Norton Juster, and it was animated in 1965 and won an academy award.

The scene where the lines starts bending into intricate shapes was really neat. It reminded me of the series of Thriller movies called Cube. Cube
The story was about a a large Cube made up of several other cubes holding traps. The rooms had different coordinates labelled and were known to shuffle themselves constantly.
In one of the sequels, the story goes into information involving the 4th dimension. The movie is about a "Hypercube" that is based on the unit of Tesseract.
