I felt so much pity for the main character. He just wants a little freedom to listen to his jazz, but is forced to endure a life dictated entirely by his mother.

Its a beautiful story about family and understanding each other.

I loved watching Alejandro transform from a shy, vulnerable guy hiding behind a costume into someone facing a real threat. A surprisingly touching comedy!

So short, yet so deeply tragic

This parable about the border between the earthly and otherworldly is full of mistrust and subtle irony

So funny anc cool!

the answer who the Stalker actually becomes obvious almost from the very start.

very dark, moody, and well-shot

It is an interesting concept, but it feels like a strictly Chinese story about where names come from and the significance of written language. It didn't really hook me, probably because the cultural weight of writing isn't the same in other cultures.

A solid plot and very good acting by the main character playing Alejandro. However, the actors playing the criminal group members do not always perform convincingly.

Ville is still quite young, practically a child, but he is such a wonderful and brave character. It was deeply moving to see how he navigated such serious, grown-up issues.

I loved the continuous relationship between dynamism and petrification

I really appreciated the elements of absurdity in the spirit of Kafka and Daniil Kharms.

The animation style is quite unusual and very beautiful. However, I prefer animated shorts with a clear narrative, so this felt a bit empty to me.

Awesome! The absurdity of a criminal group desperately needing spiritual guidance from a kidnapped partygoer is brilliant. It plays like a tense thriller, but makes you laugh out loud.

A very important theme that perfectly captures the digital void of modern generations. Highly recommended for every parent.

It didn't really hook me, high-speed police chase felt a bit too overwhelming for the emotional message it was trying to deliver.

The spiders and mantises eating their partners perfectly captures how his mother consumes his life.

interesting and intriguing

It;s a beautiful and lighthearted film. I like the idea of seeing the world through the lens of a space mission shows the incredible power of a child's imagination as a defense mechanism.

The choreography captures that brutal need to prove her own existence perfectly.

Underneath the office humor, this short film hides a heavy psychological story about a parent holding her son by the throat. The final dedication to "everyone who were devoured" leaves a very strong, lingering impression

I loved it.

It's just a psychological torture

История очень душевная и напряженная. Но в персонажах (очень классных) я не почувствовала души. Наверное,. из-за ии. Но технически - очень классно сделано

Awesome animation technique! The way the spiral notebooks and calculations rise up and fill the entire room looks visually stunning.

Counting backwards from ten to calm his panic attacks is a brilliant and sensitive detail.

It is amazing how much intense confrontation the director built in the confined space of a single room. A masterclass in creating psychological tension.

I absolutely loved the grandmother sisters, Berit! Their dynamic was hilarious. Watching them bicker constantly at first and then finally make peace was one of the sweetest highlights of the film for me.

It wonderfully illustrates how technology and robots cannot replace real human warmth!!

It is a very emotional story about suffocating family expectations.

Such a thrilling chase! For a student animated film, the urban skyline looks fantastic and the pacing is extremely dynamic.

Awesome pictures and visual style are very interesting!

This is such a soulful and deeply personal story.

It fully deserves the Best Cinematography nomination. The camera angles beautifully capture the claustrophobia and the chilling tension!

The metaphor of being swallowed up by darkness and gradually forgotten by the world just because you cannot write your name is terrifying and beautiful. highly philosophical short film.

An incredibly interesting theme about grief and the Hippocratic Oath. It is a very heavy moral dilemma packed perfectly into just four minutes.

I thought it would be a real space movie, but it's mostly just a kid saying "Mars calling Earth" into a walkie-talkie. Still, the boy insisting that "astronauts don't cry" while wearing a helmet everywhere is pretty cool.

A great modern take on vampire rituals.

too disturbing and dark for my taste

This short film tackles a very important theme and has a truly interesting plot. The director managed to beautifully expose the terrifying abyss between close family members in just eight minutes.

I don't want to spoil it, but what was inside that box was just too cruel, sick, and heartbreaking to watch.

A stunningly beautiful and cool movie!

Great animation but the story is too slow for me.

The film makes you think deeply, because so many kids behave exactly like this today. And honestly, it is completely unclear what parents should actually do in such a situation. A very realistic and relatable story!

Good dark humor

The pace could be a little faster tempo.

With humor, but dragged out.

Great music & I enjoyed the premise. Sound quality/background noise is uneven & needs some improvement

Relevant +

Good look into human behaviour.

Deep. Meaning.

Interesting loop - I would like to see it developed further.

Nice twist.

Mind-blowing.

Sweet, short film. I enjoyed the fantasy injected into it.

Humor +

A bit simplified and one-sided.

Simple & classic storytelling (can see it genuinely developed).

Soulful / Heartwarming.

Enjoyed the style of animation & the film as a whole, but wish that there was more!

Didn't understand.

Art and beauty truly become a weapon here.

It's actually a very heavy and bleak psychological thriller.

Treating the countryside farm as a Martian "base camp" is a really funny and clever idea. Hahah

Interesting plot with a dark psychological twist. However, the bad acting prevents you from feeling the true horror of their offline reality.

To be honest, I didn't get it at all. It's just a woman moving around near the water in a trance for four minutes, which is way too abstract for my taste.

You constantly wonder if people can actually trust each other when such big money is involved.

a fascinating blend of old traditions and new technology

Lovely Fairytail !

Didn't like the Actor of the King; Nice For Families

Very rushed begginning... Loved the costumes cinematography and Actors

Cinematography and Costumes where amazin - Plot needed more development. Acting was good. - Shouldn't let the tyrant dead (last Scene)

Final song, happy end.

I liked the graphics and the atmosphere itself. Huge thanks for the subtitles <3

Cool, funny fairy tale.

the last to sekonds made the story

couldn't relate; good child performance

Horrible acting skills And the story is just awful

Really bad acting - a lot of Moment but lacks emotion

Cool!

Nice Art Direction story could use more depth

Beautiful Art style and Narration; perfect flow

No story, no soul :(

Visually Cool However the audio needs to be better the Voice and quality of recording

Not a fan of AI, but not even the story was interesting to me

Very generic dialogue; why where they animals?

Nice sound design.. The story itself is terrible

the AI was a hard Watch - Voice and Images were inconsistent

I liked this one the most.

very existential

Visually interesting, however the Story needs Work (Develop The Characters)

Unexpected and deep.

What ?

trippy

The story itself is just... makes no sense

Why is there a Flying fight Scene + Wedding ???

Nice Art Style

nice artwork

Nice ending
