Release your imagination

​On a grey day the grey people are on their way to work.  Everyone is trudging in the same direction until one dreary commuter is knocked out of the flow.  This triggers some amazing effects.

I would use this film to practice the use of similes and metaphors.  

The 'workers' are all grey, actual walking newspapers, they become colourful, do they actually ride off on a butterfly or is 'like' they were on the back of a rocket?)

It could also be used to inspire the children to stop being grey and writing boring things.  To become colourful and release their imagination.
