        A Sign of the Times
        One must consider the time. The fear of nuclear war hung over everything. We take two men and have them working underground, speculating on the future of our world. One is a bit alarmist and he other tries to put a good face on things. I thought the animation was bleak and engaging. Nice work with a harsh overtone.
