Interesting animated short on the horrors and circle of violence of war. The animation is quite superb, incorporating real footage with the drawn images. The voice-over, done by a child, is haunting. Mixed with the violent images, you won't forget this in a hurry.

Only complaint, it feels slightly too long. Maybe a cut of one or two minutes might have been a good idea.

This is a film that really encourages you to think. If you get a chance to see this, I highly recommend it. If not for the meaning behind it, then just for the amazing visuals.

Animation is a form of visual storytelling that involves creating visual art and motion through the use of various techniques and technologies. In animation, images are manipulated to create the illusion of movement, bringing characters, objects, and environments to life. Animation can encompass a wide range of styles, themes, and intended audiences, making it a diverse and versatile form of storytelling.
