    "As luzes do norte brilham sempre, só não se pode vê-las na luz do dia. O garoto aprendeu que existem mais coisas além das luzes do norte, que estão sempre lá, mesmo que não possa vê-las."

    LINDOOOOOOOOOO

    JFF Plus - Online Festival

    Quando vi que curtas em Stop Motion seriam exibidos neste festival fiquei bem curioso, não consegui me lembrar de nenhum diretor japonês que utilizasse essa técnica.

    Todos os objetos que compõem os cenários são feitos a mão de forma muito detalhada, e apesar de ser uma animação, é extremamente realista. Esse cuidado se torna ainda mais perceptível na cena onde a coruja que o protagonista vem citando ao longo do filme finalmente aparece e exibe o seu silencioso bater de asas.

    Outros curtas do diretor ainda vão ser exibidos durante o festival, espero que sejam ainda melhores do que esse, o que mais me chamou atenção foi Gon, The Little Fox.

  • Review by Heredia02 ★★★★

    [Visto en el Japanese Film Festival 2021 Plus Online Festival].

    Lloré muy feo con el desenlace. En cualquier caso, muy bonito cortometraje navideño, con un gran manejo del Stop Motion, una carga emocional alta pero sobre todo un conmovedor desenlace.

    One of the greatest shorts I've seen, leveling with Life Ain't Gonna Lose in terms of first impressions.
