    Wow! That's ACE! Well done. Wish I could animate like that.

    I love the characters and the setting is cool - I bet loads of thought went into it so it all fit together so well.

    Definitely deserves award and nominations :D
  •  
  • Thank you all :)

    It was a lot of preparation indeed, with a map of the supermarket and puppets for the choregraphy. We had planed a lot more chassé-croisés, but wouldn't have finished the film in that case !

    that was great. my favorite part was when the skinny guy got shot, with the chips floating in the background.

  • Made me sick.

    Great film,with dark humor. Theres to little animation with dark humor. Best transition ever at 2:13 with the door chain going to cuffs. Just brilliant.

  •  
  • Elisabeth Parton 1 year ago
    Awesome! and half truth!!

  • FireTrial Films plus 1 year ago
    Excellent that you didn't succomb to consensus morale and popular mythology. Your ending is truer to life, adding that justice and merit are but abstract, and that animation can reflect that too. And an excellent tip of the hat to Chomet too :)

  • Ed Jones 1 year ago
    That was so entertaining. Pity about the old dear, she should have had come out of it better! Great!

  • Marc Burleigh 1 year ago
    C'est genial... j'adore une histoire qui ne colle pas aux morales hollywoodiennes. Un ton qui m'a fait pense un peu aux Triplettes de Belleville... Brava, Cecile

    Blew my mind!
  •  
  • Wow, thanks for all your nice comments ! We didn't want a typical Gobelins' film, glad it does make people react, laugh or shock. Our first ending was even worse... but we preferred to focus on the meaning of the story.
  • Bam Studio 1 year ago
    so tell us. What was the first ending?

    great work btw!
  • Haha I'd rather let people enjoy the film without knowing what it could have been ;)

  • Thanks all ! We were 5 very different artists, I don't think a feature made separately would have the same feel to it...

  • Great unique style of animation!! I like the "weird" acting for the characters and the lighting!! I also agree with Viktor that it's a bit realistic but as I said already it's unique!! Congratulations guys!! I wish you all the best.
