REVIEWS:

The Archivist is a metaphor for memory as a living archive each shelf a decision what to keep, what to let go. A brilliant example of visual storytelling.

Anthony Okuma

Such a profound question: if we leave but preserve our memories, do we really leave at all?

Hannes Tarantino

Reminds me of old films about parting and closure. But here, it’s done with childlike simplicity and quiet wisdom.

Alicia Martinez Garcia

The craftsmanship shines through every frame—furniture, folders, the character’s clothes miniature, but full of life. A true puppet theatre of emotions.

Pablo Gonzalez Fernandez

I didn’t know stop-motion could be this touching. It made me feel both sad and warm—like saying goodbye to my grandfather.
