Movie 'PROPAGANDA' originally premiered theatrically throughout Japan in 1984 and is considered by some to be the best visual work from 'Y.M.O.'

《线》是一部关于爱，关于恋物，关于孤独的短片。如果你有一个自己都感到羞耻的癖好，你会告诉你的爱人么？

Tom chases Jerry into a fish cannery; they get sealed into cans. Tom breaks out, but falls off a pier as the cans roll under him. A shark chases him out of the water; Tom drops an anchor on the shark. Meanwhile, Jerry has been hopping in his can; Tom opens it, and puts his finger in, which Jerry bites. Jerry tricks Tom into falling off the end of another pier, and right into the shark's path again. The shark manages to get Tom into a very precarious position, barely holding the jaws apart. Jerry takes pity, and dumps a shaker full of pepper into the shark, which ends up on the processing line and stuffed into a huge can. Tom is unrepentant, so Jerry tricks him with a fake shark fin.

机器人乔尼五号做着与其他机器人，比如终结者、变形金刚、机械战警，完全不同的事。乔尼五号不是想统治地球的机器魔王，也不是任由人类摆布的机器奴隶。他拒绝承认自己是一种物品，甚至机器。他大声宣布“我也是一种生命”，渴望人类接纳他。他努力向人类学习，并在各方面向人类靠近。为此他穿上衣服，还上教堂向神父询问灵魂的奥秘。乔尼五号天真善良，乐于助人，不谙世事，仿佛孩童。他全力帮助设计者本杰明生产玩具，还帮他谈恋爱。这一点也使他特别容易为坏人利用。起初是帮小偷“拿”轿车里的音响，后来是帮奥斯卡“取出”银行金库里的钻石，还被奥斯卡一伙打得半死。但是，当他明白成了坏蛋的帮凶后，他就象所有的人类英雄一样，冒着生命危险，将罪犯逮捕归案。最终乔尼五号也被美国政府所接受，成为一位美国公民。乔尼五号让我们看到人与机器人的另一种关系：朋友。乔尼五号正是人类想要的机器人类型：聪明、善良但外表脆弱。他与人类的关系是平等的，不存在谁奴役谁，谁统治谁的问题，是互相帮助互惠互利的朋友。
