A boy and his grandma are caught in a void of destruction and must build a rocket ship together to escape. This short film is a bit surreal and abstract, but also touching and sentimental. The happy/sad ending got me a bit teary. Thank you to Letterboxd friend, Samuel Robinson, for getting this on my Friend’s Short Film Project Watchlist Check out my Short Film Lists Below: Recommended Short Films (My 4 stars and higher) Friendwatch Project: Short Films (Watched) Friendwatch Project: Short Films (Not Yet Watched)

The execution is far from perfect and relies too heavily on the emotional aspect, but the animation is beautiful and the metaphor is universally understandable.
