At this time, it was already very dark, and the surrounding became a world of black and white, and most of them were black. Only the closest thing can tell the color. The last skylight jumps on the waves. (Excerpted from "The Green-haired Water Monster")
A shipwrecked crew member was taken to an uninhabited island under the surging waves. Waking up on the wet and cold sand, alone and alone, can only survive by finding fresh water and wild fruits among the bamboo forests on the island. The unbearable loneliness tormented his heart day by day. Away from the suffering of human society, let him desperately find a way to return.
Bamboo rafts built with materials that can be found everywhere are capsized one after another in the ocean. In despair, he lay among bamboo forests, in front of stone ledges, and on the beach, dreaming again and again that he was free from gravity and burdens, and soared freely like a bird.
Along with the awakening of the gradually dyed red sky, besides him, there is also the "Red Sea Turtle".
Dreaming of human society again, he rekindled his fighting spirit and decided to challenge the sea with a more sturdy bamboo raft. This time, he encountered the loggerhead sea turtle that knocked over his raft every time. Forced to return to the island, he killed the loggerhead sea turtles that followed him, and rebuilt the ship after "resolving the threat".
There's a fine line between killing a bug and killing a frog (from "Seven Beautiful Years")
Tortured by guilt, he couldn't forget his "sin", checked the turtle's situation again and again, and tried his best to save it all. All this seemed to be felt by the dead loggerhead turtle, who transformed into a humanoid woman.
There is only nature, the world and the sea, he and she gradually fell in love on the island, raised a common son, and eventually grew old.
life
In the middle of the sea, an island with a unique natural cycle has accepted this distressed life. All unstable factors appear so calm and serene on this island. The bamboo forest swayed by the sea breeze, the grass that glowed under the sunlight, the boulders that remained firm under the erosion of the rain, and he, who struggled in loneliness and loneliness, spent countless days and nights together.
Accidentally fell into a huge pit, and the unwilling crew squeezed into the narrow gap and gained a new life; the son who ran desperately away from the tsunami was redeemed in the bamboo frame that remained after the invasion; accompanied him for a lifetime, turned into a loggerhead turtle again Returning to the ocean, she went to find her belongings in the ocean.
The unnatural cycle of life returns to normal here, harmonious coexistence and separation of life and death. The large bamboo forest that was destroyed by the tsunami re-drilled out of the sand during the alternation of the sun and the moon. The son who grew up on the island, but yearned for the sea and the outside world, eventually left his parents and traveled independently. Parents grow old here, and the body with the mind has become a part of nature. Here, death is not the end, but the medium that brings about the change of life form.
love
The "love" that has been in love for a long time breaks through the shackles of reality on an uninhabited island. Steady and calm, wonderful and moving. Accompany each other, relieve the pain in the heart, and resolve the boring day and night.
On the soft sandy beach, among the green shades of the bamboo forest, beside the heavy stone frame, in the deep blue sea...
Make a promise with your loved ones: push cracked tortoise shells and broken bamboo rafts into the sea. The two who lost everything lived together on the island and grew old together. He put the clothes on the beach, she put the clam in the palm of her hand. Dance together in the sea, walk among the grass, soar in the sky, and then grow old together until the end of life.
Lonely
The unanswered cry from the top of the island, the arduous and fruitless sailing of the blue sea. The isolated crew is constantly tormented physically and mentally by the first sight of nature. The desire to live is gradually worn away by loneliness and loneliness, and the hopeless future stimulates the already weakened nerves. The yearning for the outside world began to appear in the dream: freedom, running, music, those fantastical images that had all turned into dreams, alleviating this loneliness.
Her presence (the loggerhead sea turtle), like a soul redeemer, pulled him out of the quagmire of loneliness; with clear and gentle eyes like running water, he washed the hard mud from his numb heart. At this moment, a living being pours out the power of the soul for another living being.
A moving animation without dialogue, that speaks to the nature of life, love and loneliness. The heavy, ethereal soundtrack produces a moving effect across the screen on a picturesquely elegant, independent frame.
The breath stopped, the starlight gradually sank, and at sunrise, the loggerhead turtle left the crew she had been with all her life, and climbed to the vast sea that reflected the brilliance of the sunrise.
