Tower 37 siphons every drop of water from a once-pristine lake, that is, until the station's steward realizes that it is slowly destroying an entire ecosystem.
The Incident at Tower 37 (2009) is a ten-minute HD animated film, written and directed by Chris Perry and produced within the collaborative animation curriculum at Hampshire College.

My two-year old daughter wanted to watch this again and again. She responded to parts of the video, where the fish creature was looking at the security guard, with "sad" and "he's hurt." Good video.

@mclazyi That's what the fish was trying to do when it ran out the door. it realized that there was no point in destroying the siphon anymore, so it tried to stop its partner. Afterwards there wasn't much it could do to help him.

The scene where he was lying alone on the single patch of dry land was very powerful for me. Really put the fish folk's plight into perspective.

@SittingMooseShaman That's just human instinct. We instinctively grew and evolved with black/white thinking patterns. Do not assume that the entire universe works similarly to ourselves. And beyond that, it isn't very difficult to find a middle ground in anything, you just have to use your brain and notice the obvious similarities.

6:00 -- Watching this scene in particular, I couldn't help but think: Thank goodness George Lucas didn't make this short. In the near future, he would add "Noooo!" and then a longer "Noooooooo!" just to make 100 percent sure we knew what the guy was thinking.

@mclazyi I say that the ending is great as is. I didn't want it to have some Disneyfied, Hollywoodized artificially and superficially "happy" ending. The disappearance or death of the man makes it more poignant.

Survival of the fittest. It's only natural.
