    This was truly an unexpected delight. It's great to imagine how a life lived with such fulfillment could spread so much wonder and happiness. The animation style was also powerfully effective. 12 years 1 month ago

    Such a beautiful meditation on life and the passage of time. Slow and graceful with a wonderful animation style. Recommended. 13 years 4 months ago
