It's a swept wing. When you kick it left with rudder the right wing moves
forward to a straight wing configuration and lift increases, wing goes up.
Thus the left roll.

Same thing for the left wing. Except it looses lift.

Yep, dutch roll. Swept wings amplify the rudder's ability to generate a
roll rate...
