I liked this short film. Perhaps it is because it suited my mood with its slightly depressive vibe, or perhaps it is because I found the girl incredibly likable. Her expression reminded me of a lady from my past whom I liked a lot - I cannot fathom the reason. The animation is interesting and original, and I liked the world as the main female protagonist sees it. This short film is not all about some interesting visuals; it is about feelings and emotions, which, although they are not seen as much and not really expressed in this movie, I think they are still felt, and it reflected my feelings. 7.5/10.

I wouldn't mind that the movie is depressing because I quite like these kinds of films. I won't mind that it is visually interesting at all. However, overall it is simply not imaginative enough and the story is unnecessary. It is meant to be primarily a visual spectacle that brings quite nice images, but still, I had a feeling that it could have been rendered even better and delved into detail even more. It comes across as an interesting exercise in 3D animation. (07/25/2014)
