Obvious, not a memorable short film but one animated by a generous idea - the meaning of life, behind apparences , self lies and excuses.

A doctor meets the Death.

Their dialogue, her deffense, his cold truths and the fall of illusions. And , sure, the eternal life as presumed normal desire.

But the price is high.

And it becomes just higher.

So, the return is the only reasonable option. And, in large measure, this is all.

A short film not for impress , but for remind. Not great one but decent crafted and animated by noble purpose. And a good fist of questions. Nothing remarkable, indeed. But just nice.
