This short movie moves my heart. It is in World War 2 and a boy is main character. He is a German soldier and he found a Jewish girl in occupied house. Although he must catch her, he allows her to escape because of his conscience. We can catch characters feeling easily despite there are few words. For example, the girl's scary appearance looks real. Moreover, the boy's delusion is expressed by moving his eyes confusedly. By looking on her eyes many times, his delusion that he should catch her or not is expressed. In addition, I think that camerawork is nice. The conversation between the two occurs in a hidden hole in the house. It is dark. It is not easy to watch, and it is a very narrow space. There is no other intervention. Therefore, we can concentrate on only the two. Moreover, camerawork is very near to their faces because it is narrow space. To do that, we can feel their breathing and expression clearly.
... View MoreI was moved by this movie very much although this movie is only three minutes long. I felt the bond and love between man and woman. I think the situation that a boy is German and a girl Jewish is good because their setting is different and in those dais they was not able to get together. Also, I am interested in that the present connects to the past in this movie through a unicorn. I felt that there are how to write movie like this. Second, I was surprised that this story makes us understand and move although there are few line in this movie. I felt that we can tell feelings of characters by eyes or an expression once more. Also, I felt that we might tell a message in a movie more when there are some dialogue. As a result, I thought this movie is great because this movie tell message directly although this movie is only three minutes long and there are few line. I like this movie very much.
... View MoreThis story happened in Germany, 1943, during WWⅡ and the short movie has the mysterious and dark atmosphere. Furthermore, it begins from current times, but the main character remembers something that he experienced, then it is connected to former times finally, those things is linked. Addition to it, everyone speaks German so I suppose that it set in Germany. It is the most interesting short move I've ever seen. This is because the contents is easy to understand for me. Then the background of the movie can be expected and the story is composed logically. At the same time, we would like to begin knowing the messages of the story and more detail background or history. In other words, the movie has aspects both vague and clear. Moreover, two features make it more complex and interesting. Another point is the climax. The climax is so warm although the beginning of the movie is dark. The climax that we cannot suppose waits for us. A woman and a man meet after about 50 years because of the porcelain unicorn. The faces of a woman and a man looks happy and smiling. Therefore, the beginning of it is dark and mysterious, in opposition to it, the end is happy and warm. That's why it is the most interesting short movie I've ever seen.
... View MoreI was moved by this film in spite of it only three minutes long. I found it great that such a short movie makes a film very interesting and people got moved. This story is about a German boy and a Jewish girl. After he saved her as a kid, he comes over to her house many decades later. Everyone might be touched with this last scene. He is so gentle and faithful. This film has little dialogue, however, so it is not difficult to catch the story. The unicorn bonds their hearts together. I think 'love' is the theme of this film as well as the representation of the unicorn. Besides, this film encourages us to overcome the race barrier.
