Adult Swim’s The Elephant Plot:

The Elephant pioneers a bold, collaborative storytelling format: a three‑act experiment in which each participating filmmaker — or creative duo — crafts their own segment completely autonomously. Crucially, no contributor views or influences the others’ work during development. Once all three standalone acts are finalized, they are masterfully interlaced into one seamless, unified narrative.
