  • wow. very powerful story and imagery. amazing style. i was captivated.

  • damn, this thing is really really deep

    I still don't fully understand it but it... man ;w;

  • tuc zenu i majku njenu?

  • epic

    

  • wow this really is art. and yeah a lot of symbolism too. I really enjoyed watching this.

  • i still dun get wich is da girl and the boy

    i thought the cat was the boy

    but then wen they said 50 years laters they said"u still think about him dont you"

    im so confused><

  • @SpiceyApplesRtheBEST the cat is the girl. she bought the scarf to impress her husband. and the mouse was a wifebeater. hope this cleared stuff up (not that the events on this vid seem to be cronologicly correct XD)

  • how was the mouse abusive?

  • @swatsticker first time the cat comes home in the very beginning the mouse beats her senseless. and then shows absolutely no care for the cat at all.

  • this fukin awesome

  • First i was like: WTF!?!? but then i was like: WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF !?!?

  • First I was like: WTF?!?! but then i was like: *sob**sob*

  • おもしろいです!

  • おもしろいです!

  • I turned down the sound and played "he needs me" by nina simone it went so perfect at 6:22

  • Comment removed

  • I love the part where God is trying to figure out the meaning of life.

  • @Eudaletism I think it's love that he is trying to figure out!

  • it's made me cry T__T

  • That was fucking awesome.

  • your technique is awesome!! luv it!!

    but what blurred or "graish" should mean?

    that it was a memory?

  • This is bizzare!

  • it's like if octocat was good

  • i truthfully can not stop watching this

  • that was really cool :)

  • how 275 people could dislike this?!! (sorry for my lame english)

  • Youtube fucking sucks. Of course the ads load immediately with no stopping, but the video stutters and stops because youtube is too fucking cheap to give them the needed bandwidth :(

  • what. the. hell?

  • 273 people missed the "like" button.

  • 10:00 you see how they decorate their room new and there is a carpet with the david oreilly logo :D

  • 8:05 is interesting. look on the left "dr mouse. rescue your relationships"

    this is truly astonishing and wonderful art

  • I love this video, Used to watch it every night when I was having sleeping problems and it would help me sleep. But did anyone else notice the man studying life with E=MCsquared and a Masonic Pyramid with an all seeing eye?

  • It really does tug at your heartstrings. A masterpiece.

  • Sometimes you need to say something. You need to do something. You need to pick out all the options. Crap happens. You need to do something to show you care. Sometimes letting someone else do something is the best you can do.

  • I enjoyed the artistic knowledge this took to put together. But found the whole thing pretty boring and ultra contrived.

  • Some day... Some day I will figure this out.

  • It´s a surprising and beautiful work that shows a great professionalism. Congratulations...

    

  • Who's the guy wuth the pyramid face?

  • @TheMarioMan1 my guess it is the God

  • @TheMarioMan1 Don't worry, he does not exist.

  • brilliant

    

  • fucking amazing

  • awsome

  • Powerfull, odd and origional, but very good.

  • So, I comprehend the general gist of what this is.

    The title is the first indication of the meaning. When you long for someone to say something, you're angry that they've become so disaffected. 1:43 is symbolic... but I don't know what it has to do with the theme of a capitalist consumer culture that the film seems to be mocking. 2:09 is important: information overload. 4:17... a "return to nature" sort of thing?

    God, there's so much to analyze. Can't do it all in one comment.

  • mindfucking, but really really good.

  • наверное понравилось - мозг вынесло. определенно

  • @polarchucky Yeah... I'm sure that's most important thing in entire film.

  • @polarchucky

  • i really enjoyed this video and by pausing at every cut scene it helps me fully understand the clip

  • Wow... really long and really seemingly messed up, but the ending made it all worth it.

  • Wow Masterpiece!!!!!!!

  • simple story told in a complicated way...

    reminds me to keep loving my girlfriend

  • @magnothus You sir, have just one 10 Liz-points with that statement :]

  • O.o

  • anyone know what style font is used here?

  • ah, it was so beautiful :w;

    I almost cried

  • That was cool! I loved the motion of the characters, particularly their eyes.

  • yes this is the life

  • beautiful animation style. spare, but has a genuine character to it. makes me think of 1984 and other dystopias. i enjoyed the story too, though wished it had one of the other endings!

  • i almost cried

  • This is my most favorite video ever.

  • no wonder this won the golden bear

  • great thank you

  • Makes my day every time I watch it!

  • Beautiful.

  • Deep, non cliche, wise. Watch this little masterpiece for a few times very attentively — I promise you won't be dissappointed.

  • Call me crazy, but the EXACT same cat appears on this hologram iphone video.

    watch?v=cnhFRr7DBGg

    I swear this isn't spam!

  • Omg it is! D:

    I really wish I had an iphone to have that app now.

  • what an amazing video...i really had to watch it twice and i'm sure future viewings will elucidate the subtleties further. so creative!

  • whoaa.

  • It's good but has some weird parts.

  • what does the director mean at 4:22? is it just how he felt during the making of?

  • @GoldfishChannel I kind of feel like maybe the director is hinting at some sort of God-type figure who's incredibily confused with the goings-on of his creations...That's just my interpretation though. :)

  • my brain hurts... great video

  • 8:40 is such a great representation of that feeling

  • Oh yes, I agree so much!

  • Wow, this is amazing!

  • i dont get it

  • only when u lost something u realize how precious it is

  • @BellaBro Common true, but so many people aren't aware of this fact - it's just sad.

  • @BellaBro

    I know I've experienced THAT alot... well put, my good sir.

  • woww

  • Haha, I have another version on my computer. The music coming from the TV in the beginning is different. Probably something with copyright?

  • WTF!?

  • Gonna have to agree.. That was wirey.

  • great im speechless

  • Comment removed

  • Wonderfull! So new!

  • shits dope

  • wow i liked it soooooooo much!! it is something very different, that´s what I´m searching for!^^

  • Welcome to art.

  • modern art

  • Exactly.

  • It's great when aesthetics and content work so great together! It doesn't happen very often, but this is one of the best examples. Fantastic storytelling and editing. Great work!

  • nice

  • omg i cried but i was so happy at the end :')

  • Lovely.

  • someone forgot to turn on the Anti-aliasing.

  • Amazing graphics! Ratet: Trillion stars xD

  • lolol:"your scarf looks...

    -OH..!

    great storyline tho... really hard to understand,but if you do. its awsome :)

  • ah, just great! good ideas in visuals and in storytelling!

  • its the 10th time i watch this short and i swear it made me cry...it gives you the feeling as in "what if this happend to you?"

    Thanks for the up..cheered up my day once again

  • OMG I LOVE IT!!!

  • aww what a nice story, i love that it ends up in a happy way :')

  • It felt longing.. in a good way. So satisfying at the end.

  • I got bored so i searhed "something" and this was first vid.

    I dont get this but i watched whole shit.

    Why i told that? No idea

    Well 5/5 anyway dunno why.

  • cursing awesome (in the words of fmfox)

  • i remembered the first time i saw this i was utterly confused and i just got the general idea of it, now after watching it after a few months i finally get the deeper meaning

    haha sophmore ap english actually helped XD

  • Only 10 minutes long but this short film conveys a lot more emotion and story than I've seen in hour long films. I love the visuals as well. Great job!

  • most exciting thing ive seen / heard all year

  • i really dont get this.. is it because i only got half way and stopped?

    im baffled by reading everyones comments on how much they liked this>

  • dude i get what you mean, a friend sent me this, n m like, is this supposed to get better? =| i stopped at like, 5 mins sth, n m not rlly sure which one's the wife, dont rlly get the point of this... o.o i cant get how everyone else gets this n thinks its so awesome =|

  • you have to watch it the whole way through, i was like wtf until the end...then i realised, and I really think it is good

  • epic...

  • Bizzare... Engulfing, and fantastic.

  • My favorite video on youtube, ever.

    If you want to have a life epiphany, just watch this.

  • this video is just brilliant. it uses other things besides "hi-def" or "quality" animation to get an emotion out of the audience... Like in some scenes have a light glow on everything, or all of the strange dreams that they have...

    my absolute favorite scene is at 08:27. It is a really good use of the animation when the mouse steps back from the door and everything fades away, like his world is falling apart.

  • odd

  • nice.

  • awesome...

  • I love this vid! Like others said, surrealistic, yet very real and true.

    And I love the little side things in the vid that appear frequently but are hidden, like at 1:53 there's FUCK written in big, maybe to reveal the cat's mood...

  • What an incredible video. The emotions were so real and vivid, even though the setting was surreal.

  • that was awsome.....

  • that was sexy

  • sometimes i thought i got it but then something else happens and then i don't get it :S:S:S xx

  • i don't get it either..

  • Read the video description. It's about the cat and mouse's relationship.

  • I don't get it =[...can some one explain it

  • I get it now nvm

  • It is very surreal and almost dream-like and yet it is so realistic.

  • i can't get enough of this vid. david o'reilly is geeenius. every single essential detail was immaculately animated, the story and message is good, the soundtrack is just perfect. and i feel so uplifted at the end, when they come back home, the applause and cool music starts.

  • It shows what society has turned into today an abusive and detached husband and a wife who needs her husband to get along in life. i love this video for the reason it does show what society is. the maker of this video sees how the system works truly the best short film I've seen.

  • I have watched this video four times and I keep seeing and feeling things I missed the time before. I feel like I'm eves dropping on a very private relationship and I can't stop watching it. Her neediness and desire for his attention,,,,,,his detachment from her and how he is oblivious as to how he effects her. The possible other futures if they fall apart...the way it could be if they come together. I just watch thier little lives over and over.

  • That is Truly Epic. I loved It. I Really Did.

  • Awesome new theme and design at all!

    Keep the work and the style up!

    Don't be afraid to be too trashy or catchy...

    Great work!!!

  • mayve im too dumb to get what it was...

  • this was my favourite at Fantoche Festival! I saw you won, congratulations!

  • agree, I've seen it at Fantoche as well and it beat the competition by miles for me emotionally.

  • this my friends, is art

  • Wow

  • Epic animation..

  • Love it.

  • well then...I dont really know what to make of that but...I liked it :D soooo 5 stars

  • I think i'm tripping out.

  • It's beautiful.

  • brilliant! maybe the best "future short"

  • That was fascinatingly odd and different :) Although the white subtitles on white background did make some lines of dialogue completely lost. It was so good! I loved it! It all makes you think not only about the characters interactions, but as to what their actions mean and what's going on. Incredibly fascinating.

  • esto es mejor que la television!!! pero por que? xD

    muy bueno :D

  • In the end, they actually saved one another, did i get it right?

  • lol i watched it again and at 1:55 it says fuck at the top

  • at first i was like....uuhhhhh.... fuck this!!... but i watched the rest and everything was staightened out

  • This is better than shrooms O_o

  • Aww..such a sweet clip, I wanted to cry at the end.

  • this was extreeeeeeeeeemly weird. never watched smth like this before. puH!! :)

  • My brain was like AHHHH!!!, rebooting...

    AHHHHHH!!!

    Rebooting a second time....

    The Fuck???
