A pleasant and strange little tale...
planktonrules5 February 2008
This is a very interesting short film from the onset due to it unusual graphics. Instead of being live action, cartoon or CGI (which is quite the craze these days), the story is told through odd black pencil-like drawings that have an odd Gothic charm. While it's not the most colorful and exciting style I have ever seen, it deserves very high marks for being original.

As for the story, it's a bizarre fairy tale of sorts. I little girl has a very odd heart condition--it beats much faster than normal and it beats so loudly that it bothers the neighbors. After a while, she is hated by everyone and quite sad--culminating in an exciting ending that makes you wonder who you should really feel sad for in this quirky film.

This is a cute little tale that is worth a look--pretty interesting and I look forward to seeing more from this crew.
