Beautifuly animated short, that was interesting at the start and gone nowhere for me in second part. I think i can give some explanations about metaphor for me, but all of them are strange

I feel like just about all films about the Holocaust are always amazing. But this short film just feels wayyy too Oscarbaity. The animation and the story just isn’t great.
