Really love the style and appropriation of a traditional fable idea (although the story is original) present in this short film. It has beautiful aesthetics, right down to the decorative elements in the titles. The film relies on a narrator (theme?) so the dialogue is restricted and a lot of emphasis placed on the actor's body movements and actions.
