i loved this video, it has a soul

[TheCasaBonita]

This is really really good. The actors are perfect for their characters, the dialogue is natural. I like the creepy atmosphere in the first part, although it changes a bit unsmooothly to the friendly one in the second part. Furthermore, I like the symbolism of the two men lost in nowhere with the packback as their only connection to society.

MistaQyou, how did it come out that you made such a nice short movie and what brought you to make this kind of plot? Can you explain me something more?

Thanks!!!

[AndyClockwork88]

The whole short film is really very well done, congratulations! Wow, some things the old man says can really make you reflect a lot! It is so touching the fact that a simple man can have peace within himself by finding out who he really is... I would almost consider the old man a prophet! The working class man figures him out as a sort of dirty wanderer, ignorant and savage only because he lives alone in the woods! But we understand that the "savage man" has a lot to teach him!

Really moving!

Yes, the video is well acted & yes the video is overall very interesting, but the continuous invites are redundant and they make one feel as if they are being beaten over the head, with perhaps the video itself.

In this context, original material is underated.

That was really cool. The white haired guy's view on life came off like poetry and the working man looked confused and sounded scared to great effect. I liked how being lost in the forest mirrored the bigger picture of a man lost in this world. My only complaint is got got a little wordy, but a lot of poetry tends to do that. Good stuff; I'm subbing.

[Beadbud5000]

like the first few minutes.

[ReyineBrianated]

Very interesting! Lots of questions about existance and living in societys banality.

Some good actors too. 5 stars

Nicely done, a great story, and you handled it well cinematically! The wrinkled white-haired dude (LOL Paris) had a lot of long blocks of dialogue
