What a magical story. I like the style of this animation. Many people does not know that the shadow puppets in South East Asia was actually influenced by Ancient Chinese' shadow play.
The audio was a little out of place though. But I like the realistic movements of the characters and the nuances in the environment. Five stars.
Wonderful and a good example of how life itself can be. It's a pitty that people see this from a technical piont of view. The deep meaning is so true....so many hidden messages.
Apart from the audio track being slightly out of synch with the picture, this is like a beautiful and exquisite Chinese painting come to life. I've been captivated by the idea of the lost paradise of Shangri-La ever since I read the novel Lost Horizon by James Hilton and saw the 1937 film based on it. This uniquely Chinese take on the legend is absolutely enchanting. Thank you for posting it, pearl714.
