Approximately two minutes in my first tear escaped, a tear of familiarity and empathy toward these characters, animated characters whom I'd just met and the piercing, enveloping grief they wore on their animated skin that seemed so real. I'd forgotten that these weren't real people, at least real people made of flesh and bone; that this wasn't a real story, though I suppose in very tangible ways you could say that it is, in fact, very, very real. In just 12 minute l, this short film acts as an enormously powerful testament to the idea that cinema is a place to experience that which one themselves may otherwise not and empathize with those who do.

is it bad that I didn't shed a single tear? I feel like a robot. Guess I wasn't in the mood for something like this but I went in completely blind.

America is so fucked up.

The king princess jumpscare?

1950 does not fit into this at all... it really ruined the vibe for me. That’s... not what that song is about. I thought Spotify had started playing the song independently, that’s how much it stuck out and felt out of place. 

Of course, it’s hard hitting and emotionally overwhelming, but that’s mostly just the subject matter and not really the way it’s been told. The animation style lends itself to the subject matter, in that it looks as though it was drawn on a school notebook. I’m sad but this wasn’t that great.

my god, when i realized what this is about.. it's incredible how emotionally impactful a 12 minute long animated film can be
@Academy, istg if you don't nominate this

and in case you were wondering.. yeah, i cried like a baby..

well I'm just sad now

this feels like something that would go viral on facebook in like 2012 also who the fuck chose a king princess song for this and why

Sedih sih semoga hal begini ga pernah terjadi

didn't cry but it's sad yea

:-(((((

Cortometraje con un buen mensaje. Quizá no conecté con el tono, y quizá me sacó de sobremanera la canción principal. Apela al sentimentalismo... pero pues el tema es duro. Bien. No me encantó.

not even sad tf

sad

pain :(

te amo

Like spelling subtlety in capital letters.

I cried so much I have a headache.

I cried like a baby and that's okay. Great short with an almost silent approach to such a horrific subject. It should be mandatory to watch for any politician or person who just sends thoughts and prayers and says guns don't kill people!
