Have been trying to remember the name of short animation films (maybe 3 minutes long?). Stumbled upon this site - and would be really grateful if somebody can help.

The character in the films was a female assassin/thief. She died at the end of each task.

One film had her falling from a helicopter - and she eventually broke her neck in the rope still attached to the helicopter. Another film had her training to jump through a building that looked like a climbing frame in order to steal something. She was killed by an alien that had two rotating sides to it's body -it's body was well matched to the climbing frame, so that it could move through the building very quickly.

Thanks for any help.

That would be Aeon Flux (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeon_flux).

Thanks Purukivel,

That's brilliant - I've looked on YouTube - and that is the answer. I've tried to find this out for years - and this place managed to answer in just over a day. Fantastic.

Thanks again
