Story
Simple and to the point. Some families live as a single unit separately in separate homes. Others live close to each other put in separate rooms like a hotel. Other families are not as blessed and are forced to really pack in and share a room. This story is based on the last two outcomes to really show their message of teamwork. Which is basically each person has their own strength and are raised differently because of cultural or other reasons. When they band as one unit they can defeat many taunting odds. The only part of the story i did not ... like is when it came to the message and reasoning (the conclusion) they summed it up in one word. Not a very good ending for how short it was.

Art
Aside from it being black and white the resolution suffered. The only problem is one can't exactly tell how much. For the intro was shot during the day when everything was nice and sunny. However the middle and ending were shot at night and also they featured a 'wavy' event. Some of the artwork depictions i could not tell were intended as cartoonist or mistakes. Like the arms length or the log's width.

Sound
They had some nice little music and some animation noises. The narrator's voice seemed a bit out of place at first but i suppose it beats pausing and reading subtitles.
