In a world where darkness seems to grow with each passing moment, a new animated film sheds light on the subtle descent into shadows and malevolence over time. While it’s easy to perceive the world’s deterioration, it’s far harder to recognize our own transformation into darker versions of ourselves. Some may consider this film lengthy, but they’re mistaken—it’s simply that they’ve grown short. May this film succeed in at least helping someone become kinder: in words, intentions, decisions, and actions. May it prove worthy of all our efforts.
