A detail lots of people have missed is that a 1:01 it’s actually written that it was at first a *robbery that escalated to a murder* that happened in her house. This increase the impact when you realize she also tried to steal fuel and killed someone in the process. She truly turned like her own monster.
Holy shit it didn’t kick in until just now that she basically did the exact same thing. Christ.
noticed.
Noticed
I like how all the memories are shown in third person perspective; up until the point she sees her eyes and realizes what shes doing. Like she'd been disconnecting herself from reality so she could be brave enough to act with cruelty, and it resulted in tragedy. Just like the robber who killed her husband.
I feel like it was also her seeking revenge for *two* people who were murdered…: Her husband, and the happy, innocent, untraumatized version of herself.
What gets me the most is that at 5:20 she sees the dead or dying gas station worker and yet it doesn’t even register to her because she is so obsessed with getting the fuel for her car. Genuinely chilling when I first noticed.
Wow, I didn't 'the owner' was there, because it only showed him for a split second. I thought he was blown sky high into the forest somewhere.
@@ARandomUser12 but why does this want to make me laugh…
Yes exactly at 5:22!!!
I adore how we see every memory from a third person perspective but it turns first person after she sees her reflection and realizes what she’s doing.
I feel like it was also her seeking revenge for *two* people who were murdered…: Her husband, and the happy, untraumatized version of herself
The moment where she was dripping with blood and excitement just trying to find this killer for her husband, and looking up to see not the criminal eyes, but her own really just crushed me.
Hmm
Its just like a sucker punch to the belly! Love this animation
ikr. The way it's done is really clever imo.
Fuck off man stop spoiling
just noticed this, but i love how her flashbacks at first are like her being disassociated from her own body. she’s not seeing it exactly how she saw it while it happened, she’s watching as a third person, but then when she realizes the mistakes she had just made, her flashbacks are seen in first person. she’s back in her own body, seeing through her own eyes.
=O good catch

4:20 I love how instead of her pupil becoming small and a stripe like they usually do in animations and other medias, her's became big and round, as when a cat is preparing to attack. More realistic in this aspect.
I think they do it because its easier to notice and gives a scarier vibe? which in that case is honestly just bs because we have it in our brains (other animals too) to be aprehensive/scared of dilated pupils since it's a sign of adrenaline, and most predatory animals will have a rush of adrenaline before attacking; In the cats case their pupils dilate before they pounce because of how they're shaped, the slit pupils make it easier for the cat to foccus on a single object but in order to make a successful attack they dilate their pupils to let in more light and take in their surroundings to make an escape/chase route. It really bugs me when they make the pupils shrink during a moment of shock, fear or anger because it doesn't make any sense, but since they've been doing it for so long we always expect to see it in films/art.
@@sakuraice22 Yeah it is better like this in my opinion. And indeed she's more scaring like that Xp
I think this is one of the best scenes in this animations, losing to yhe eyes in the mirror one. This is literallya work of art.
@@anaju3595 Yeah, the animation is really well made.
@Alkalez real
As someone with ptsd, nothing is scarier than seeing similarities between yourself and your abuser. The mirror scene illustrated that really beautifully
I know what you mean..After 3 abusive relationships, I fought tooth and nail to never be like that..to always help others and never allow who I'm friends with or in a relationship with feel like I did. Sometimes..it happens without us realising..and all that prior abuse doesn't hurt quite as much as being told that's what you are. Even at almost 7 years in a healthy relationship, there are things I can't let go of..so you're not alone 💗🤍💗 *takes your hand, placing my other hand on top with a smile* I'm sure you're doing so much better now..and even if you aren't, it's okay ♡ that time will come. With a little help, you'll only hold onto the lessons and not the thoughts and behaviours, and will grow to be someone even more strong and beautiful! We're not like them. We never will be. And if it happens without you realising, always have even just one person you trust to always tell you the truth ♡. You've got this 🥺💗🤍💗🫂🫂🫂
@@mama_quartz Same with me. I escaped my abuser nearly 9 years ago... yet there are times I snap. Certain music triggers awful memories. It's not a picnic. I get told I'm stronger by others, but there are days when I crumble. I often watch certain videos or play certain music to ground myself again.
@@KittyKatt_Luna80s I'm about the same. I'm going through a crumble now in fact. I have music triggers too, plus movie, show and videogame triggers. It's awful that we'll likely be stuck with the damage forever, but it's nice to find others who can relate to what you've gone through and help you feel like you're not alone 💗🤍💗 remember, it's okay to be vulnerable, to crumble and feel depressed..you just need to show yourself some kindness and allow yourself as much rest as you need, no matter what others say or think. I'm trying to rest, but the source of my stress is next door so I can't escape atm. Well, next door on both sides and above me -_- but I'm trying to watch cartoons I love, talk about nerdy stuff with my boyfriend and feed our friendly garden squirrel, Tufty, peanuts ☺️💗🤍💗 let yourself find joy in the smaller things, like hazy sunlight through closed curtains, a candlelit bath, the sound of singing birds, crunchy autumn leaves, the smell of fresh coffee and the aroma of cake being baked! Trust me, embracing the littler pleasures will help, and also help you appreciate your own company without feeling lonely ^-^ anyway, I've rambled for far too long. I truly hope you feel better, and can smile and laugh from the heart 💗🤍💗 take care of yourself 🌈🫂🫂🫂🌈 ~ Rose xxx
@@mama_quartz Thank you, Rose. Another thing I find calms me is the smell of lavender. I have a spray for my pillow. Smell can ground me as well - the ex's house smelled of damp, so that's a trigger for rotten memories. Similar tactics there.
that sounds terrifying. I'm sorry to hear that and I sincerely wish you well
To me, the most emotional part was her, looking at what she had done at the end. The way she just kneels down. The gas station owner probably had someone who loved him too. And she inflicted the same pain on his loved one. I rewatched it and one awesome detail was that there's a no smoking sign, right above his head as he's looking at her. At first I thought he kind of caused this on himself but she literally attacks him with a sharp object.
6:26 The way the light just fades away in her husband's eyes, it really shows the life had left his eyes literally. Such small details like that is absolutely my favorite and it makes this moment all the more sad and tragic.
And the way the light in his eyes was moving, to me it feels like he was trying so hard to hold on, even for just a few minutes more, to look at his wife This short makes me cry every time bro 😭😭😭
I think that this film captures "grief is just love with nowhere to go" perfectly. Absolutely incredible.
I think vision said it best “what is grief if not love persevering”.
never heard of this saying but i love it
She killed a innocent and burned a gas station, nothing achieved.
@@antspiano1378 What is achieved is not not the point/significance
@@hypixelmaster272 This is not Vision, this is a quote by Jamie Anderson, director and writer of "Doctor Who" novels
It’s a small detail but I absolutely love how the cat’s whiskers are shown as neat/straight in her flashbacks, but after her husband is killed her whiskers become messy and wavy.
not to mention the wrinkles under her eyes, as well as the eyes being more empty instead of sparkling in the flashbacks

i always thought the sentence "their heart sank" was just silly. But this animation genuinely made my heart pull down.
I love how she didn’t even get time to grieve when he died, she immediately sought out revenge and that was all she could think of until she saw her reflection in the mirror and seen she had become the thing she was trying to get revenge on, then the grief hits her.

i love how it almost takes her a second to process that she isn't looking into the eyes of the police sketch anymore, those are *her* eyes. the pause on that shot shows us so much of what she's feeling. she is so manic that she can't even recognize her own eyes for a moment, she just wants to stare into the eyes of the killer as a sign of triumph and pure revengeful rebellion, but as she does, she realizes how similar they look.
also that her eyes are normally always round and destinctivly different, but now she saw those were exactly the same as the killer''s eye making her realise what her actions as led to

This made me so emotional, I cried. This was so heartwarming but also heartbreaking at the same time. It gives me a weird, undescribable feeling, and I love it.
This is why I'm always impressed with short films. Even if the film is less than 15 minutes, they can always tell a compelling story and narrative.
And also build more charachter development than entire shows.
It's not despite the short runtime, but precisely because of it that short films tend to be more meaningful than full length movies. It's the limit that makes it shine.
And will STILL tell a better story than The Last of Us 2.
@@RushWheeler ¡NO!
@@RushWheeler It’s been almost 2 years. Get over it 😂
My favorite part had to be when she looked at herself in the mirror and saw the eyes of the killer. It was so relatable in a way that sometimes when you’re fueled with rage you scare yourself by realizing you look exactly like the person who hurt you the most and it’s the worst. I love how the animators left a few seconds out for that scene for her just to be staring at herself because it’s the slowest thing in the world sometimes.
Wait did you murder someone
@@dandish4965 someone had to die
@@GreatSwarm Yes :)
Oh god no
Jesus the more I watch it the scarier it gets. I swear. It gives me the chills every time.
it’s the fact that she realises that she’s becoming the monster in the end which has me sobbing my eyes out
I think it’s rather impressive that this whole story was told without words. The first sentence we hear is ‚911 what’s your emergency‘ when she was the cause of that emergency, and not when she actually needed help before when she had the emergency… I love short films
don't forget the distant radio sounds during the start
@@snowytooktheacountbacklets9473 also the song "let me call you sweetheart
"Call an ambulance, but not for me."
Well there was also the sound of the cat (idk her name) crying
@@yay2763 yeah, but I was focussing solely on the speech here, there of course were many other non speech sounds in that film
A lot of people are mentioning how they love a lot of the details, but I can't express how much I love the detail with the color choice. The present uses darker shades, and more blue hues, while everything in the past uses lighter shades and more soft orange hues, which have different connotations that are normally underutilized. She sees the past so warmly and fondly, while the present is much colder and moodier, and the visuals make that explicitly clear just in color choice alone.
I wish I picked up art at a younger age
I love how the older memories have this glow Filter that makes them look like a recording from the 90s or something
In the opening shot you can see the wife sitting outside the house and everything its colored with cold “dramatic” colors but the light from inside the house is the same color as the memories. It’s like the warm colors haven’t yet faded from the house they shared. But I might just be overanalyzing
It's pretty common to have nostalgic memories in movies to have a warmer hue
yes!! i love it when animators use colors to portray stuff like this!!

@@enoztheprotogenshadeyboii7074 circa 2011 XD
Agreed
timestamp?
I loved how the husband isn't just a plot device. Usually when a character dies as backstory they never get developed, but here can really get a sense of who he was and how deeply he loved his wife. Congratulations to the team on making such an amazing short!
I'd argue he is a plot device used *properly.*
That's why it was so much more painful to watch ):
@Madman from the DOOMED PLANET I agree with you, man, husband wasnt really developed, as it was just properly shown and explained plot device, the real developing there could be the information why some dog murdered him, is there anything husband did in the past, but the main idea of shortfilm is that vengeance is gonna born one more murderer(or bad person etc.), so there is not that much of space to develope her husband, so yeah
I love the relationship between the protagonis and her husband Make me smile everytime i watch it
@@ridosaputra5273 And that makes it all the more heartbreaking. If those flashbacks were left out of the film, I doubt the climax would've been nearly as strong.
亡くなった彼が復讐を止めてくれる的な演出があれば、まだ受け入れられた。 ただただ、復讐に囚われた自分に気付いて、何をしても彼は帰ってこないと思い知らされる。動画が終わった後も、しばらく泣き続けました。
In fairness to the cat, who the hell is stupid enough to smoke when they work with flammable liquids
I absolutely love the parallel that both the house break-in and the gas station explosion can both be described as “robbery leaves leaves one dead” as shown in the newspaper clipping in the beginning. (Her husband, in the house robbery, and the gas station employee/manager in the explosion)
That's a good point!
I also like how when she’s lying injured after the explosion, she blinks and sees her husbands murderer and then sees the employee in the spot when she blinks again. Shows how she thinks he’s just an obstacle in her way to getting revenge on the murderer.
Did she at least get to eat some bacon? It’d be a shame not to eat all that free barbecued pork at the gas station.
@@princesspikachu3915 *oh*
Yeah & the gas station guy was parallelled by both the robber AND the husband.
i love how it doesn't show if she got to the murderer or not, it's just pure, cold, hard despair of a person (or should i say anthropomorphic cat) going through loss of her beloved. it's not mystery solving but instead focuses on feelings. i am so genuinely taken away by this.
I hope they at least show us what happens
@@authority1016 agreed, if there was a part 2 for this animation then i would watch it, right away
@@authority1016 Me too! But my personal theory is that, since she called the cops, they track her location and she may very well end up admitting guilt to the fire (and murder, if the gas station man is dead) and getting arrested. :(((
@@shilohwhiloh9636 anddd more memories of that black and white cat... with that german shepherd, too(i love that cat hes kinda cute) Edit: waitt now i think its a doberman xd sorry

正直泣いた 全然リアルでもあると思うんだよね。 今までこの物語と同じようなことがあったら、絶対復讐してやると思ってたけど、同じ土台に立つって言うのはこういう事なんだな。復讐出来ないかも。いい経験になった、良い動画だった。
It makes me think of Katara in Avatar: The Last Airbender, in the episode where she confronts the soldier who murdered her mother. Katara was about to murder the man to get revenge, but she decides not to at the last possible second; later, she comments, "I don't know if it's because I'm too weak to do it, or strong enough not to." Sometimes it's difficult to know true meanings within our thoughts and emotions.
なるほど、車の鏡を見た時に自分が復讐したい物と自分自身が同じになったのか。凄い作品だなぁ
One thing I noticed is that when she’s calling the police, she makes herself go back to the burning gas station and takes in what she did instead of running away. This animation is amazing and the art is so good, there’s no need for dialogue because the visuals show what’s happening perfectly. And the Implication that the robber stabbed her husband is so sad

@@Ender_Spy I agree
WHY DID THE FIRST COMMENT GET MORE LIKES THAN THE SECOND COMMENT LOL
@@anyawhohatescarrton.334 not anymore.
seriously? how did you notice that small detail?
5:20 you see the body of the gas station employee dead but she doesn't care because she's hyper focused on the fuel for the revenge. Shes lost herself entirely to the point where doesn't see how far she's gone. Where filling up the car is more important than the innocent life she just took. Very well done
Where is the body
Yes, but not very clear
@@DylanDkoh if u pause at 5:22 you see the body before the fuel
If you go on 0.5x speed and pause on 5:22. You see him
you got the point omg
The emotional part for me? Her crying. The way she cries just gives off her simply wanting to have her husband back. To be able to be in his embrace but also knowing that'll never happen. It's giving a the same vibes as wanting your mother to hug you one last time when you're old, but knowing she'll most likely never be there anymore.
this is exactly why i love animation. in the comments, you can see all these people making theories and talking about how beautiful this is, how this is well written and it has a guts wrenching story. but this has no dialogue. no words at all in this, (except for the 911 reciever) and yet this nine minute film was able to connect millions with it's stunning visuals and storyline. this is absolutely breathtaking.
I love how the closeup on the eyes of the sketch was a leadup to them being replaced with her own eyes in the mirror after the act she did, showing how in her pursuit she ended up doing exactly what the person she was hunting did, a robbery turned fatal stabbing leading to a fire.
Holy shit I didn't even realize how similar the cases were thanks for pointing that out
Very True..
History doesn't repeat itself, but is sure as hell does rhyme.
Love how the scene where she wakes up and looks around, completely unfocused on the person she possibly killed and instead focuses in on what she was trying to steal. Didn't even notice the pig's body as the camera pans over to the jerrycan so fast. This whole animation is so good at portraying a ripple of pain and suffering, a chain of damage that we won't ever be able to fully comprehend.
WOW. I didn't notice either! Thank you for pointing that out and sharing
There is no pig body? If there is, I can’t find it:’)
Nvm had to play it back slow to see it
That's an easy detail to miss. Thanks for pointing that out. The pig is dead. This cat did something that cannot be taken back, and that's part of the tragedy here. I love seeing that in this story.
@@onemoment6769 Exactly, she did exactly what happened to her lover. The thief stole something from their house and killed someone in the process, which she did the exact same.
She is fuelled with revenge that she killed the innocent for stealing, wich is exactly how her husband died. Man i wish this was a like a movie or something these cats made me cry😢. The plot that getting revenge wont change anything reminded me of peter parker saying he got his revenge but it doesn't makes it better, you need to let the past go. This story also made me realise that love is beautiful.
The saddest part of the eye scene (at 5:55 - 6:06 ) is that police sketches are from the witnesses memories so she remembered the dogs eyes in great detail and seeing thoses eyes reflected on her must have been a extra devastating hit the eye that probably haunt her reflected in her own eyes
I love how in the end, even though she's got a full tank of gas, she doesn't flee the scene. No one would've known it was her, she was in a rural forest. The only surveillance cameras nearby were likely in the gas station, which was blown up, not to mention the destroyed evidence. This shows how she made a true difference from the killer, who may have been in a similar situation, creating an endless loop of hateful revenge. By accepting what has already happened, and taking responsibility for her actions, she ended the loop all right then and there. This shows how owning up to your mistakes may be hard, but well worth it. Better than to lie, cheat, steal, and run your whole entire life to cover up your past wrongs. There's a real lesson here to learn.⭐
Я не согласен с тем, что она до конца признала свою ошибку. Точнее, осознала весь её ужас, но вот хватит ли у неё силы воли решиться это кому-то рассказать? Я думаю нет. Вот например, задай себе вопрос, что она скажет диспетчеру на том конце провода? Что она убийство совершила? Поджёг? Украла оттуда ещё что-то? Что она скажет? Ничего... Этот звонок был скорее всего для неё психологическим пиком в данной ситуации. Они не зря не добавили её диалога в конце. Я более чем уверен в том, что она не слова ему не скажет и будет тупо молчать в трубку, ну а в конечном итоге диспетчер её таки и бросит, подумая, что дети балуются или ложный звонок был . Ну ок, даже если она и сможет что-то сказать, каким-то чудесным образом, не думаю, что это будет что-то вменяемое из-за, опять же, психологического напряжения. Собрать волю в кулак и позвонить очень сложно ей было, а уж, уверяю, ещё тяжелее сказать правду. Ну хорошо, даже если она не скажет всю(именно выделю это слово ВСЮ) правду и вызовет полицию, скорую, пожарников, приедут все, то наврятли звук их сирен придаст ей смелости и решительности остаться там. Поэтому, я считаю, самым логичным для неё в тот момент будет уехать, а затем, в мучениях, гонениях, ошибках, все-таки действительно решиться сознаться, прийти в полицию и признаться в преступлении. Ей за это будет грозить нормальный такой срок, а никто сразу после преступления не признается в содеянном, такова уж психология.

I love the symbolism here with the metaphor between a car being fueled by gas and a person being fueled by revenge I also love how her pupils dilate after killing him like how a cat's pupils dilate when hunting prey.
The details were really good lol
her pupils dilated not just after she killed him, but specifically when she sees the can of gas Unless you're talking about how her pupils were dilated whilst running at him, before the explosion?
They were also similar to the Doberman’s eyes.

Love is strong, but it hits harder realizing that what you’ve done won’t go back
Wait, I just read the description. THIS WAS A COLLEGE PROJECT?! Wow! You guy's must've taken so much time on this! I hope you guys got a really great grade on this, because wow. The details. How after she kills the man her movements are jittery, how much you can tell she wants revenge, the flashbacks, everything. You can tell she regrets what she has done, and at the cost of another person's life, she got the gas.
Right? They're awesome
It's crazy, this film is filled to the brim with emotion and it goes so deep. It really is incredible.
"i got the gas... but at what cost"
regularly the cost is like a liver, but now its a life in this animation, i like my odds in that one.
i actually agree
This animation manages to strongly convey one of the worst pains anyone can feel in such a compelling, convincing manner. I definitely teared up when she broke down and realized what she had done, and what she planned to do wasn't going to change the fact that he was gone. She became what she was so desperately seeking to destroy, and that's heartbreaking.
I can’t believe you’ve got no reply’s and I agree with this
@@aidendoyle6126 wow i had no idea this comment got so much attention. Thank you!
Your welcome
this animation is just beautifully sad, and i absolutely agree. it amazingly portrays the feeling of loss and the 5 stages of grief. while it absolutely feels depressing, it shows a sad truth- life isn't all rainbows. bad endings are bound to happen. miracles are not something on demand, you have to face life as it is. the fact that she stopped herself and realised what she did and gave herself up (presumably) is so well done.
Things that you lost are never coming back, never. And thats grief, personal grief, things that u wanted to be different, but they can't, anymore, and they aint coming back too.
I like how at the end when she stand in front of the burning building the fire isn’t as wild was it was when he left, and is no longer lighting the entire forest. The flames are calming slowly.
The expression she makes right before the pig dropped the cigarette is haunting. It's the type of haunting when you lose someone so dear to your heart and wanting vengeance, to the point it's not justice anymore. This will go down as one of my favorite short films, hands down the storytelling and animation are perfectly done. I'm glad this film is getting the praise it deserves.

It doesnt deserve shit its a furry leffist propaganda that makes your kid want to be a furry if they watch it it gets engraved in your subconscious
@@dawidek4267 just because people used animals to replace humans it doesn't mean it automatically turns into furry propaganda
@@Robotic_Individual that's what they want you to think, but one day you might also be making an animation, and you might think "hey what if i make characters animals like in that animation about a weird cat i saw" and this is how it controls your life through your subconscious do you understand
I think the key moment is when she realizes she can't get her love back. Even if she completes the revenge, it's all in vain. Interestingly, this message transcends the original meaning of the animation. All of us who have gone through a loss, be it grief or a breakup, know the emptiness of wanting to go back to a past that no longer exists. Part of the healing process is letting go. Edit: wow, this blow up! Much love from Brazil ♥

I agree with you sir or madam
no it's not. this interpretation is really shallow

Damn you really gotta make me cry today don’t ya
THIS IS SAD AND CUTE AT THE SAME TIME-
This made me cry,it’s truly a masterpiece. Her pupils dilating when she sees the gas,the mirror between her and her past self…it’s truly amazing ❤️
Это заслуживает Оскар!
At 5:56, the way her eyes line up with the killer's in the wanted poster is such an incredible detail. I had to rewatch to notice since the scene is rather quick, but it truly exemplifies how her mindset has become one and the same with the person she despises enough to attempt to murder. Her shock afterwards too, as if she's not seeing herself but the monster she swore to end the life of. The shot perfectly demonstrates the genuine fear she has for her own reflection, and how changed she has become.
I noticed it when watching in 2x
I especially like how she had the wanted photo in front of her rear view mirror. Symbolically and literally, her desire for revenge prevented her from relflecting until the very end.
I had almost the exact same experience. My dad was shot. The guy didn’t get charged. He said it was “self defense” because my dad came out with a gun when the guy came in the yard WITH A LOADED GUN. what do you expect him to do? Be chill about a guy with a gun in our yard. So yeah. This animation really hits deep.
@@kaydenbigman oh dude im so sorry. did your dad recover?
@@lotus4688 no. he is unfortunately deceased. I wish the suspect to go to hell.
I like the question that proposes: when it stops being justice and starts being vengeance? Justice is a very tricky concept for people, because it's not about us as individuals but about society order. And by that, it would never adjust to anyone completely. So what she's doing isn't searching for the murdered, she's hunting them down; she wants to inflict a pain similar to hers. It's sad because she could choose moving on for good, asking herself "why this type of things happend today?", but instead she choose "why did you do this to *me*?" And where does that lead her? She just killed someone that didn't have anything against her, that in any other situation would be a come and go talk and that's it. But now she's this monster born from a ghost of her past self and it's too late to regret it. She has to live with what she had done, I hope she can do that
From the looks of it, she truly regretted what she had done by calling the police and standing right by the decimated gas station, likely to turn herself in. But it just shows the lengths that one would go to for avenging someone they loved dearly
She should have hired somebody, then she wound't have to hurt anybody.
She was a nice woman... Who lived from 0:00 to 8:58
@Yomas Riprud nop she would go to jail for life, murder whit intent. No therapy for the wicked.
@Zoe Guy The job would have gotten done, and without killing any innocent people.
泣き始める所の呼吸が上手くできなくなるのリアルすぎて泣いた
Как больно это было смотреть зная концовку, но это того стоило, автору большой поклон это шикарно
I love the eyes of all of the characters in this, especially of the main character. The way her eyes twinkle in the flashbacks, how they reflect the fire when she wakes up, how they dilate when she attacked the shopkeep with the broken bottle or when she found the gas can when she woke from the explosion, they shimmer and glisten when she cries and you can tell she can't see the phone's keypad through her tears because they appear murky, it's so good! Plus the animation for any liquid is just mesmerizing, be it petrol, blood, or tears! I forgot to mention sound design, especially in the final scenes. Papers rustling, water/blood dripping, cool and sharp winds on a winter's night, the quiet yet ever-present hum of the car's engine, the crackling of fire off in the distance... Putting the music on hold and surrounding the audience in ambiance really grounds the animation.
Eyes are windows into the soul. I'm defiantly gonna take inspiration from this for my own animations... assuming I ever get my lazy @$$ to animate something.
Cringe furry
6:26 If you look at it closely, you can see the exact moments when the lights leaves his eyes. There’s so much detail in this short film alone! And then you start crying because you realize how sad it is
And until she cries, there is no light/reflection in her eyes in the present. (Also, with the pig, but that's typical for working retail.)
And in must all the animation she don't have light, but when she looks at her flashbacks she have those lights
yeah
That's an accurate detail on the signs of death or dying, I've read that the lens of the eye starts to dry quicker moments right after death, so you actually see the exact moment someone dies through the reflected light on their eyes dimmer, because the dying/decomposition process begins.
I didn't read the full message so I didn't see the 'you cry cuz it's so sad' but when I skipped to that part, I cried
I like how her eyes fit in the right place of the ripped apart picture of the killer, showing that the more anger she consumes, the more alike she becomes with the killer 5:54 I really want this series to continue on😭❤️
”Time flies so fast, life is too short, make the most of your time with your loved ones”

The gas couldn't take her to anywhere, she already lost her way... This is very heart-breaking yet touching story, I can't help but rewatch it several times to know each details.This is really amazing, the color design and character expression are flawlessly done, definitely one of the best animation in this year
bruh i've watched this for like 10 times

@Dempseyration and here, we continue until someone said "i watch it for 1k time"

This made me cry She just wants her love back 😭🥺
5:27 The way her pupils slowly dilate when she sees the gas. She is so fixated, so hyper focused and obsessed with her one goal. She doesn’t even care about the corpse.
Common sense of cats when excited
I think in a way the animation even pulls you into Cathy's perspective even more by having the camera essentially ignore the corpse as well, I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out.
i didnt see one
@@DOMythStart at 5:22 and play it at 0.25x speed
I was traumatized. Thanks,@@tiagodecastro2929 ! (that was a joke I am not emotionally scarred)
She looked so insane the way she just got right back up and rushed to fuel her gas tank, determined to continue her mission even after killing someone and literally blowing the place up. It's crazy how she was so caught up in catching the monster, she slowly BECAME the monster. Truly an appropriate time to say, "You became the very thing you swore to destroy."
Those eyes when she ran at the store clerk with the glass bottle. that's when you know she became the killer there.
@@bogymanthedark Yeah man, was scary af 😰
that's exactly what i thought in the part she saw her eyes on the mirror and see they became the same as the killer's
@@AndreaOliveiraSuedalael true

何も喋らない 絵だけですべてが分かる完璧な物語
何が正しいのか分からない作品や凄く悲しく凄くいい作品だった
I can admit, I’m disappointed in myself for not having seen this nearly a year ago. This is such a great animated short. To think that a bunch of college students have a much better capability of creating an animated story than most, big show producers and such. This is just quite amazing.
This has to be the best short film I have ever seen. The lighting, animation, music, etc is the best part pare that with the tragic story of grief ptsd and revenge you get the saddest but best short film I have ever seen. 10/10 stars.
You got the right point. Also watching this short film gives us all hope that film industry isn't falling down to bad grade like Hollywood (modern).

Well said (typed) lol
Exactly! Idk why I’ve been skipping it out all this time!
*She became the very thing she swore to destroy. Gorgeous short.*
Beware when fighting monsters, you do not become a monster for when you look into the abyss, the abyss looks back
@@slickt8128 Reminds me of a certain knight from Dark Souls
最終的に夫を殺した犯人と同じ事をしてしまったの辛い...例え犯人に復讐出来たとしても夫が帰ってこないと悟って泣いちゃったのかな、上手く言葉に出来ないけど良い作品でした。
It takes skill to express and create so much emotion without using any dialogue
This is one of the best shorts I have seen in a long time, animated or otherwise. It perfectly portrayed her pain. And to see her nearly slip into becoming a monster only to pull herself back from the brink was brilliantly presented.

Hi Becca!
I love movies that treats people like they usually do,most movies just think we’re dumb and stupid so they have to explain everything,Imagery speaks more than words sometimes and the way it was shown here was both creative and interesting. It takes on a topic that is very human that when people are in stress they may choose violence in order to get what they want,which explains how easily you can become a murderer not just the message but the animation and art style is gorgeous,.
I agree completely with what your saying and I see what you mean, I adore how human it feels making it both sad and incredible.
But there aren't people in this movie
@@CANALIMG No, but it conveys how humans can quickly resort to... Immoral actions whenever things do not go their way. Basically they allow their instincts to reign supreme over their rationality. At least that how I interpreted the animation.
"mwahahahaha now that I caught you let me describe in great detail my eveil plan in case you were not quite sure why I made this machine, telling you this could never go wrong >:D" -pretty much all villains in all stories
I don't want to disappoint you, but in this movie, the thought also lies on the surface.

the house isnt burning though, it just looks like it is because the lights are on
Ur profile pic is from terminal montage aint it Revenant?
Wow, I didn't notice that
okay story aside (amazing of course) the way LIQUID is animated in this is FANTASTIC
I love how well made this is, truly deserves those awards! Also, it’s absolutely amazing how you don’t need any dialogue at all to make a good story
Not sure if this was a minor detail or not but I love how the protagonist sets the murderer's photo in front of the mirror, like that's her motive to get revenge on him and she can't look back. ...And eventually tearing it up after she realized she became the very thing she went out to destroy, looking back and fixing something that she was guilty for. Something the murderer didn't do humanely.
I wonder if she'll get told off for blocking her mirrors, too.
Minos prime ultrakill can't really be talking about refusing revenge
Like dude mf minos prime you mf get out of the flesh prison first thing you mf ass do is kill your freer for revenge, then proceed to go kill Gabriel still for revenge mf shit yo mouth get railcoin mf ass
She could have completed her revenge and then turn herself in
Also, how is she fixing anything? The guy is already dead, there's nothing fixable here
I love how in 5:22, you can see a glimpse of the gas dude but the camera pans to the gas as if the wife completely disregarded what she just did because she’s focused on getting the fuel to continue her revenge
Such a small yet wonderfully executed detail indeed, didn't even notice it on my first viewing. I am becoming more and more amazed on how much ''simply college students'' can achieve with enough creativity, willpower and determination.
Not sure if this was intentional, but another small detail I noticed is that the gas station is called Bacon Gas and the profile of the roof above the pumps looks like a bacon strip after the explosion (5:10).
@@jampersand0 Oh, wow. I just noticed. Also, the fact that the owner is smoking right below the ''NO SMOKING'' sign *2:47**.* If a lifetime of watching movies has taught me something, it's that cigarettes and gas stations never mix well.
I’m tryin to listen to that little tune at 6:13 on repeat 😭
its just a random animated short film it cannot be that good, lemme check *10 minutes later* . "agressivly burtsts into tears so hardly i couldnt even say a single word"
This ended up being my class assignment and while I watched in sorrow for our main character others around me laughed. This short animated film is great and the best thing I have ever seen in school on the screen. The graphics the attention to detail the meaning of the wild psychotic break down the flash backs. It's all so good and heart touching.I guess what I wanted to say is keep up the good work. And students made this to it's great.
6:12 Is easily my favorite part; however, the shine fading from her husband's eyes is gut-wrenching.
how did u notice it 0_0
@@damnyou2586 With the shine in my eyes.
Farrrrk that was painful
It's usual in anime
@@kitsunemesis That's depressing.
This is incredible! It’s such a simple story but there’s so much emotion conveyed through the animation. Not to mention the amount of work put into the background art, effects, and sound design. It’s just WOW Also I really love the Easter egg of all the production members having little cameos in the film! I didn’t expect that but it was such a good surprise
wait there was little cameos?
It’s really well done!
I'd need a timestamp for that bc I managed to miss that part
Killedthecat productions is the studio name, and judging by this being the one video on their channel I can imagine they are going places. I hope so, this video is phenomenal in every sense of the word.
For anyone curious about where the cameos were: 0:00 - Michelle, Catherine, Emily 1:43 - Josh, Daniel, Eido, Aroona, Fawn 3:20 - Georgia, Jisoo, Starlyn, Subin If you go on their Instagram account you can see their respective animals!
I watched this when I was a kid. It hit me so hard and I understood. It still means a lot even today.
Bro.. when I saw this animation in the early hours of the morning I went to sleep with a heavy heart wanting a happy ending
4:15 this is definitely my favourite part of the whole short film. The way the music cuts out as we see the mc sprinting at the station employee, with the whole world warped in a shot so brief we can only focus on the mc's eyes as they approach. From the glass shattering, the the pitter patter of her feet, to the build up of the cigarette falling and lighting the gasoline, the audio design for everything was nothing short of spectacular!!
Same XD I rewatched it over and over again X
Just like an empty space in a busy artwork is extremely meaningful, silence is as well. If you're used to the stimulation of a sense, you really notice once it's gone. Loss of visual makes the mind focus more on sound, loss of sound make the mind focus more on visual
Same dude, no long need to use Mc, because her name is Cathy. Got it from instagram by the spoilers.
@@jos8009 oops yeah forgot to tell him. It was just concept art, they’re not really spoilers. If you didn't notice, on their insta they only posted stuff about the flashbacks so everyone though it was just gonna be a cute little animation. Not nearly as dark, or about revenge as they let on, even tho their name is KilledTheCat and the shorts name is "fuelled", which can be a bit foreshadowing. But, on April fools day they posted the video of her waking up while the gas station burns, but played it off as an April fools joke. So it was a surprise to some to see how dark it was when it was released, I love the way they bamboozled people
@@supersolomob422 thanks for the heads up 👍
