    Amazing!
    To put it simply, this movie is a jewel: After being in love with it for quite the time, I have decided to settle down and write a review for it, because no matter how much praise it gets, this short animation film deserves more.All the people who did voices for the movie did very well. I was very impressed by how they got the mood just right and how you could just feel the emotion. The music and the animation are extremely well done. Another great part of this movie is the animation. People these days are getting so used to computer animation that when they see stop-motion, the first thing they think about are all the flaws in the movie. To me, that is the beauty of it. Everything you see is man-made by artists and craftsmen. It's awesome.

    All in all, this movie is a 8!! Go see this movie you won't regret it!!!
