This is an interesting short. I particularly see it as some sort of throwback to the surreal cartoons from the early nineties (The Ren & Stimpy Show and the first Rugrats episodes)

It is mostly an exercise of style over substance, with the visual elements being more important than the narrative, but I honestly think that the final result is good enough to be worth-watching. The design of the main character reminded me a little the works of John Kricfalusi.

I think that anyone who enjoys surreal and strange animations will find this to be interesting.
