"El orden de las cosas" or "The Order of Things" is a Spanish 20-minute live action short film from 6 years ago written and directed by the Alenda Brothers. The cast isn't bad and the story early on also has a couple good moments. The first jump in time was very smartly done. But overall, I still believe this was not a good watch. The plot just becomes too absurd and metaphorical at some point. Is it drama? Horror? Mystery? Thriller? Difficult to say. And the feel-good ending felt somewhat forced. Why not go with them drowning. Anyway, I personally did not enjoy this one as much as I hoped, mostly to the uninspired second half of the film. I do not recommend the watch. If you still want to check it out, make sure you have subtitles unless you're fluent in Spanish.
