The House of Small Cubes



Japan Media Arts Festival 12th
Title: The House of small cubes
Artist: Kato Kunio
Grand Prize

For a 12 minutes animation, few drops of tear. Simple, touching story line. What is life? Life just a thing that full of memories? I always imagine that i would have a life just like the animation. Family, friends, all gone, living alone in the old house which full of memories.

P/S Think of global warming when see the house covered by water. Is it another message from the artist?

喜欢这短片,真实,简单。回忆一层一层地重现,回味着一层一层的回忆。人生是否都是那样的?一点一滴的生活,一点一滴的回忆,回头看看,看看现在,其是人生就是那样。十二分钟的动画短片,没有对白,没有华丽,只有写实与简单,足以让泪流出。他的生活像是我为自己虚构的。老了,亲人,朋友,没了,独子一人生活。不愿搬走,因为那地方有太多的过去,只想静静的过剩余的时光。

P/S 看到屋子沿了,即然想到全球暖化的后果,不知制作人是否在传达这讯息。
