"Alike" is an award winning animated short movie from Barcelona, Spain. I don't know the purpose of the two directors when creating this movie. However I suspect they are trying to create awareness about the importance of paying attention to feelings, emotions, passion, relationships in an environment where the rules are already set, creativity has no place, and success is nothing else than following other people's steps.
ResponderBorrarThe target audience is probably parents with young children who find themselves in similar situations.
The authors use different colours (meaning emotions, happiness, passion, spontaneity) against "grey" (meaning structure, boredom, obligation). Original music helps to create the atmosphere of continuous movement of the city and routine in which this story takes place.

This is an award short film made in Spain. The director uses 3D simple figures, colours and music to tell a simple story: A father and son begin their daily routine walking to school and work. One day on the way they meet a violinst playing under a red tree in a small green square.
ResponderBorrarWith the daily repetition of their routine you can see how they go loosing their creativity, their energy, their spontaneity through the changing of their skin colours.
I think it is probably made by young people for adults to reflect about the loss of their passion for life.
