Each year, there are special showings of the Oscar Nominated Animated Short films. However, normally this show would only last about an hour...or less. So the folks who packaged these films also include several so-called 'commended films' as well. "Lost Property Office" is one of these commended films.
The film appears to either be made using stop-motion or is CGI...I had a hard time telling. Regardless, the story is done without words and was rather weak in my opinion. A man has apparently worked at this lost property office his entire life. But his job's being eliminated and so he builds a flying machine and flies off to God knows where.
The best thing about the film is its look. Using only sepia tones, it created an interesting little world. Unfortunately, the story itself did little for me.
