Fear is a strange and funny thing.It can mutilate every part of our body and leave us helpless.Fear may come from a number of different things but in the case of a child,it usually comes from one scarring source.That source being the loved ones.Many children has to face cruel child abuse from the source that were supposed to protect them.This abusing nature from their loved ones leaves the child helpless like a larval stage of development which is more than appropriate symbolism that is shown throughout this shorts narration.
This short despite being only 4 minutes long handles a very mature and violent subject matter.The sound design is brilliant and the art style reflects it's narration perfectly.This short may need two viewings to get the point I mean I know that I did.This short was Saori Shiroki’s graduate work from the Tokyo University of the Arts' Graduate School of Film and New Media.I haven't seen any of her other works but I am excited to see more of her works.
