The dearer you hold a memory the more painful it becomes. |
| I saw it at a animation film festival I was volunteering at way back when (: pretty neat. |
 |
| Not sure how much I enjoy the new direction Yamamura is taking his work. Both this and Kaibutsu Gakushou, they seem to be referencing older European works, and don't feel like they can stand on their own as much as his past work could. (If I knew the old European references, that may enhance the experience, but strange medieval creatures and early 20th century ballet aren't things I've had past experience with) I still enjoy his animation, just not the content. |
| I loved everything about this animation, especially the messages and wisdoms. "What is man?", was my favorite segment. |

| It looked cool and everything, but every time there was text on screen I had no idea what they were talking about. |
Fourhundr said: It looked cool and everything, but every time there was text on screen I had no idea what they were talking about. I believe the text on the screen are quotes from Erik Satie's essays. If you read the background text under the sypnosis it says, "Mixing quotes from Satie’s essays with the music performed by a Dutch jazz band, the Willem Breuker Kollektief, this film is an animated re-creation of "realist ballet" images going beyond reality.". |

| Don't buy it unless you absolutely want to. It's free on YouTube. |
| Not sure what to think of this. The director must love early 20th century art forms, there were many references to pick up from early cinema to visual arts, 20s dances, cubism and surrealism, Miró and Klee. Because a lot of the art in question, while well-known for its historical value, isn't exactly popular today, this felt at the same time avant garde and historical. But the end result was confusing and I was left wondering whether there was a deeper point to all these images that didn't seem to fit together. While some of the things were pleasing to the eye, and others were interesting, like transformations which are a staple of short avant garde anime pieces, I didn't like the result all that much. And since I'm not even sure whether there was a message to judge, I'll just leave with the gut feeling that it was slightly unpleasant to watch. |
| I don't have much to say about this other than that it was interesting. I will rewatch this later someday. I liked the "What is man?" segment. |
