Listen people, plants aren't self aware. This director is using a concentration camp type scenario to make you feel something that doesn't exist. He/she could of done the same thing with rocks. Either way though, they did an excellent job of appealing to emotions.
nice work! It reminds me some recent researches about the feelings of plants! I prefer black&white film for emotion films, also I recommend a couple more of fast frames in the growing of plants throw the seasons. Keep up the good work! Save the enviroment! Save our planet!
Ah, but the moral is to do LEAST harm. Simply killing or sparing is not the topic here. Vegetarians are more nonviolent than non-vegetarians can ever be, and today that matters a great deal...no?
The film was very fulfilling with a clear message about human nature and how we affect what's around us, without realizing it. Personally, 5 stars bueauitiful They love this type of short. Outstanding!
How can something as innocuous as a bunch of plants be so sinister and yet so emotive?
The faceless workers trying to obliterate the last vestiges of individuality is palpable yet has a deeper and unpleasant metaphor or analog for what mankind is capable of doing to their fellow human.
very stylish and great camera. the content of this short film could be a lot better though. I know, "Enter your text here" at the end means, you should interpretate what you've just seen by yourself.. but it still didn't keep me interested to watch the whole short without skipping.

I don't know why those people didn't get it I thought it was well thought out and the addition of the music pushed the idea even further. Good job all in all!
ignorant people shouldn't post if they "don't get it". leave it to the people that do to appriciate it for what it is. also, along with that other person's comment about comparing plants to animals, that's right, but also remember that people can also be thrown away just as easily.
This is one of the worst films I ever saw. Future Shorts, this is not the way of making an impression, there´s a lot of good films out there, why this? that´s right, it has a very good cinematography, but, where the hell is the story? there´s a lot of very good ways to waste the money and the time of people
dude the story is on the life of a plant and how it is similar to that of a animal that is grown for the soul purpose of being consumed by us humans or it might not be consumed but it can also be used for decorative purposes where they will be put in some random plot to live for a year and then wither away slowly. i can take it a bit further and say that this is a good way to say that "just because your a veterinarian dont mean that the suffering has stopped"
dude are you sure think about it. the differences are too much. in the holocaust people where taken and gassed in huge numbers. where in this the plants are taken and butchered for the purpose of being cloned and then harvested. to make more of springs. there is no mass genocide going on, but rater mass production. similar to that seen in mass chicken farms, or pig farms or cattle farms so on so forth. the only difference is that we dont see blood, or faces. so we just think eh what ever
The holocaust can be seen as a sort of mass production of death..
Dunno if you've ever seen the concentration camps now but the video was similar to the camps at certain parts. I wouldnt argue that the differences are "too much"
The plot is listed in the description on the right. It is about persecution and struggling. In other words, this plant is not like the other plants. It is not good enough. It keeps getting passed over and tossed aside, and yet it still manages to grow and thrive. If this were about the holocaust, they would have harvested the whole lot at once. The same can be said of the animal farm theory. No, the good plants were allowed to remain to continue to grow.
this video was terrible, first off who cares about a shrub or what it stands for? i don't get the imagery and that shit half way through the video where the screen flashes colors gave me a headache, also i can't see how this "film" won three awards. if someone showed me this i'd either have them committed or demand my time back. i'm unsubscribing from this channel and adding the director to an online list of wasted lives
cinematography and sound were awesome. Hard to bring about my own thoughts on what the short was about, but whatever it's intentions, I was captivated and stumped all the same.
it's weird how this video makes you feel something for a darn plant.. it's not like it feels anything right ? soon enough i'll be sad to throw out an empty spray can!
Impressive piece of art. Absolutely brilliant. They took something ordinary and inconspicuous and turned it into something very emotinal and touching. The imagery... oh well, i just love it :-)
oh i like art, i watch indi films, foreign films with subtitles from around the world. but everything as art means nothing is and if it is so esoteric as to be anything well than buy some monkey feces thrown at a canvas
I got the eerie feeling that the plant was a Holocaust victim... and the nursery was a concentration camp. It is comparable to being the only person still breathing, buried under a cart full of your dead & decaying companions ~ who are being "processed" & experimented on just like plants. This film was powerful... I loved the close-up style and contrasting shots to the sky, but the end left me hanging.
but i wouldn't be surprised if someone turned it into an animation. jesus, they've made films from the perspectives of ants, bees, toys.. psh, why not plants.
i really don't see the point of this video. i thought that something was goin to happen... btw, how do you feel bad for a plant? It cant even feel bad for itself.
I supose conciousness is relative. Imagine if there was some super intelligent species which was so sophisticated that, to it, our lives, actions, thoughts and emotions seemed as simple as a plants' are to us. Thought provoking video
What is all this blather about defining message? Art needs no singular message, art is defined by interpretation. In fact all that art is a set up for interpretation. This was stylistically appealing, told a story, and (for me at least) was emotionally evocative. If you look for "the" message in all art you see you will be sadly disappointed by a majority of the modern art movement. Simply put, have your opinion or don't, but don't complain about there not being a defined "message".
yea your rite there is no one message but humans bu nature cant just say its everything and nothing it has to be a specific thing or its total hog wash
Beautiful film. I don't know if there is really a message being presented here. The job of a film maker is to tug on the emotions of the audience. Kudos to Joseph Barnett for being able to do that using a plant. He truly turned the shrub into a character that you feel sympathy and emotion towards.
This was so stupid. A major waste of time. This reminds me of those "artists" who take a dump on a canvas call it art and because someone thinks its art everyone agrees. This wasn't art this was somebody with a camera filming a plant. There is no "hidden messege" so stop looking for one. You can't conger up a meaning and think your intuitive, thats called being an idiot.
Just because you don't personally like something, doesn't mean that it's "shit". I'll be honest, I personally didn't like this video. However, I still appreciate that Joseph Barnett can do a bloody lot better than me at it and I respect the piece as an art form. It's just the same as someone saying that classical music is crap just for the fact that they don't like or appreciate it.
@gmoneyq69: the only idiots in here are people like you, having no talent, no sensitivity and have to bash everything they don't understand because they envy those who can make art from dump placed on canvas.... see: if a moron looks into a mirror he will see a moron looking back... art is a kind of mirror. if you see stupidity in it... what does that tell us of you..?
There's a difference between protensious bullshit (I'm looking at you modern art) and something that can provoke thoughtin a person without outright yelling it at you face.
If I see a "brick wall with a piece of gum on it and a gang sign", that will be disregarded as shit.
If I see this, put it in and out of context, whether I realize it or not.
i said "in an art museum" to show that they consider it art because like a famous artist made it and no mater what it would look like it would be considered art by the museum. everything IS art. its just your taste.
The message is to the right. The plant is being "persecuted" for being sickly and not full like the other plants in the plot. It keeps getting passed over, because it is not good enough. And yet it continues to grow and thrive, despite not meeting the gardeners expectations.
Captivating in many regards, but I personally don't like the message it's trying to convey.
Maybe if they filmed the destruction of a forest in the same manner, then I'd be moved. As it is, they're filming the process of producing commercial shrubs. They're making more plants, if you will. More plants= good.
Using pesticides, and chemicals? maybe not so good.
Either way, i guess, nobody's views will be changed by a youtube comment.
Listen people, plants aren't self aware. This director is using a concentration camp type scenario to make you feel something that doesn't exist. He/she could of done the same thing with rocks. Either way though, they did an excellent job of appealing to emotions.

The message is to the right. The plant is being "persecuted" for being sickly and not full like the other plants in the plot. It keeps getting passed over, because it is not good enough. And yet it continues to grow and thrive, despite not meeting the gardeners expectations.

Nice video!
Kinda spooky in it's way...
Seems like it took you over a year to film that clip!
Great effort I love it!

Captivating in many regards, but I personally don't like the message it's trying to convey.
Maybe if they filmed the destruction of a forest in the same manner, then I'd be moved. As it is, they're filming the process of producing commercial shrubs. They're making more plants, if you will. More plants= good.
Using pesticides, and chemicals? maybe not so good.
Either way, i guess, nobody's views will be changed by a youtube comment.

I loved some of the camera angles. Especially the one it opened up on.
