User Reviews

Another Polarizing Effort

This is a creatively presented short. It takes the most fundamental graphics possible, the use of black lines on a white background. These lines morph into the story of a man's life in a clever, creative way. I see that once again, instead of evaluating the film, they are ticked that it won a couple of amateur awards. Enough to give it a one star rating. This is an artistic effort and deserves some recognition, not treating it like "Zombies in the Bathhouse Prison."
