    I like how when he's remembering the past, the aspect ratio goes from 16:9 to 4:3.

    So incredibly glad to have had the chance to aid on this film! My contribution may not have been more than some water ripples, but I'm very thankful for the opportunity, and by GOD have you all done a stellar job (this is my first time seeing it in full)!! I felt entierly captivated, glued to the screen, holding my breath until Simon got to breathe after the house scene. So intricately crafted, I hope you're all so SO proud of yourselves! ❤️✨

    I think the horse symbolizes his childhood. We see a vision of it on the day Simon and Agathe can safely re-enter the zone, intact, but it's in a dreamlike haze -- tough to say if it's real or fantasy. Upon actually entering the zone, its bones can soon be seen in the grass, confirming once up close, it's dead and gone. No way to get it back. It's there in the waterlogged photo album drowning in Simon's old house, and a vision like one we saw near the start watches Simon and Agathe in the boat. By sailing away, Simon leaves the fantasy it can be reclaimed behind for good, but its ghost still peacefully haunts the town without him.
    Absolutely adored this short. The atmosphere is fantastic.

    The geese migrating caught my interest, it’s always a sign of environmental recovery when animals migrate to historical sites once more. Waterfowl in particular, since most of the times they’re really sensitive to environmental changes
    Also, the colors used in the film are ASTOUNDING, huge props to the use of color theory and color language! The way Simon’s blue clothes and blue bedsheets stand out in his overgrown, now wild home, like plastic in the woods.
    AND THE HORSE AS WELL!!! I’m not sure what the symbolism of it is, but considering how historically it has symbolized humanity’s success, I think it might be about people returning.

    First time watching this I thought the guys name was Gene and he was taking in the grief of losing his childhood and the two sailing away was like symbolism of him leaving or moving on from his past, literally and figuratively with his colleague whom he shared most of his first stages of grief in losing his childhood, denial, but after reading the description I realized I over analyzed the animation short film. In my defense it easy to get lost in the sauce while watching this. It was so beautifully animated and draw as well as voice acted, it showed a lot in a short amount of time. Truly yet another amazing film produced.

    i really like the game board on 5:47 that has all the key elements: house, tower, horse, boat and two figures. on the other level i see this as journey into the past, that is overwhelming, nostalgic, and sad maybe because of long lost connection. but again he comes over it and takes one good memory/thing (boat) and keeps it.

    i left country where i was living my entire life not long ago. i feel this film
    i am not from people who wants to go back. i hate that place, it hurted me so much. everything that i am, my whole being, is claimed wrong and bad in this place. i can go to prison there for just fact of existing.
    at some point it was bearable to be there, but then one day it became impossible to stay there. i took decision in one day. week and i left. moment changed everhthing
    but a lot of people who left this place have something there. things. places. they have something good connected to this horrific place. they have connection to it
    i know a lot of people dreaming of day it is all ending and they can go back. for me it sounds same as sudden back to zero level of radiation. it doesn't work like this
    the dream of thing which once was home, destroied then suddenly, somehow becoming real again. i know people with this dream. can't say if its sad but. in that country i see house in ruins. h orse c оr рs. sometimes its sad to me to see that people see alive horse instead of that i see. it makes them wants to go to this place. and it is scary letting them go

    The collapse of the stair at 4:27, and then of the window at 6:30 were so seamless, I've never seen that done so well! (I'd love to hear more about how that was done)
    The build from 6:00 to 6:30 worked so well too, the animation, pacing, and sound and music really came together.

    in reality, no bio remediation of nuclear radiation could yield a 95% reduction in emissions within under 200,000 years.
