Zoe's Car

Ardele Lister

1986, 06:30 minutes, colour, English

TAPECODE 259.02

Zoe's Car originated from ordering "50 farm animals for $2.98" from a newspaper for Zoe, a two-year-old. The order was put in her name and she subsequently received not only the animals but an endless supply of junk mail with fantastic offers and potential winnings of cars, cash, and jewels. She received notification that she had won a car which she is still waiting for. The tape is about the American dream--getting something for nothing.
