This short film functions like a good joke with one of those punchlines that keeps you thinking and laughing about it for long afterward. A soldier awakes in a place that's fifty percent white, fifty percent gray, with only a television to denote landscape. Imagine that scene in the Matrix where Morpheus teaches Neo what exactly the Matrix is. The soldier turns on the television and learns that he's dead...
...and the rest would be ruining the joke. Just take my word for it that it's very bitter, very funny, and very worth it.
The animation's pretty good. I think one of the best parts about it is the timing and editing, considering the humor aspect of it. It's not the completely beautiful fully developed animation that we're slowly getting used to and beginning to expect, but it serves its purpose effectively here, and that's what matters the most.
