This is still the best short film I have ever seen - imaginative, mournful, and deeply moving.  The surprise relevation in the closing scenes is not dulled by repeat viewing, and the performances are, without exception, wonderful.

A perfectly realised piece of drama, beautifully shot, and with wonderful control by the director.  I can't imagine a better short film.
