The only reason i leave this review is so i can admire the work put in to this. I'll make 3 sections of my review so it will be easier to read. This review will be spoiler free as much as i can and these are only my opinions, you can feel free to disagree with me and leave your own review.

Visuals; Even though its a short, probably low budget animation it feels like high quality animation movie. Lighting and effects used totally great and animation quality on little details are impressive. In short, it has a characteristic value on its designs and realistic lighting used in great harmony to achive amazing results.

Story; It's a bit hard to explain how story progresses without spoiling anything. I think story starts a bit stiff, progresses quite nice through middle and at the end we are presented with a predictable twist but even though its predictable execution and visiuals are good enough for you to feel like "yeah that was quite nice short"

TLDR; This animation have amazing visuals and a bit weak story. But overall experience and harmony between two aspects are well executed which makes watching this short quite enjoyable experience. Thanks for reading.

Story; 7/10 - Visuals; 9.5/10 - Execution; 9/10

admirable work

a fisherman. after a storm on sea. a refuge. and the presence. after short time, the fight against past. the realism of animation. and the thrill. basic traits of this admirable animation. seductive, impressive, dramatic, a story about lost and the need to conquest the past. in essence, one of films proposing a story about yourself. in a special manner. because it is one of wise stories about life meaning. and about memory as axis of that. so, a fisherman, a beach and a house. and the only option.
