Mr. Freeman (cartoon serial).
Mr. Freeman is a Russian animated web series named after its main character. The series appeared on “YouTube” on September 21, 2009 and got considerable popularity in RuNet. The main content of the series is monologues which in a harsh manner criticize the lifestyle of modern everyman. As of August 16, 2012 there are 19 episodes published. The total number of views is more than 35 million.
The animated series contains many symbols and hints. For example, Freeman may appear as a shape containing the stereotypical traits of some specific individuals or social groups (for example, while saying “I've placed everything under my will”, Freeman is standing on a pedestal in a cap-cornered hat, holding his hand at the chest level). There are also hidden frames in the series, which contain elements of a larger image. In addition, there are details, insignificant at first glance, such as numbers 21.12.12 into which the ECG transforms in the first episode, which are the estimated date of completion of the current era according to the Maya calendar. These and many other details nourish many versions about the identity of Freeman and his goals.
Each episode is numbered, but the numbers are not in consecutive order. It is noteworthy that initially the episodes were released twice a month (on the 6th and the 21st), but now they are published once at the end of the month. At this rate, it is thus safe to assume that the identity of Mr. Freeman will be revealed on December 21, 2012, if there are 64 clips in total.
All episodes except for Part 0 have two identical frames containing a hidden piece of some puzzle.
