The close-up on the face was gross but kinda memorable.

Truly engrossing. The lack of soundtrack and the realistic ambiente noise gave it a very naturalistic feeling, as if you would stand right near the characters.

The way how the moth settled on the face of the child made it seem like a mask, a mask the old man attempted to put on. Howeve, right afterwards the moth flew away and died after getting in touch with a lantern, symbolizing the volatileness of youth.

That was very good. One of the best examples of the draw while erasing art that's not so common with shorts. Very nice art. And like Eudaimonia said, the lack of soundtract and the ambient noise really made me feel like I was right there. So much that I kind of expected something loud and scary to happen when it showed the close up of the baby's face after the moth left.

That was creepy AF and the art was worse with the creepiness. The old man's face reminded me of an Addams's family character, hell let me say the overall short movie reminded me of Addams family.

The hands that put the blanket over the baby looked too small for scale.

Just stumbled upon this while looking through random anime. Very eerie. I'm sure it means something.
