The white clouds flow silently, constantly changing their appearance, and time is passing quietly. We are wrapped in it and keep moving forward. It seems that there is always a little thought in our hearts, and we want to pursue the moving and yearning in our life. This yearning can be a passionate love, or a deep family...
Today I recommend a simple, meaningful, beautiful and powerful animated short film: "Father and Daughter".
Some netizens commented: The eight-minute short film is extremely rich in imagery. The eternity and life that runs through it are like a string, full of a sense of power that shakes people's hearts.
At that time, girls were just girls, accompanied by their fathers, and had a happy and carefree life.
The father rides with his daughter on the road, and even the uphill road seems to be easily traversed by the father.
When he came to the two trees, the father stopped and suddenly wanted to leave the girl. He moved forward and couldn't help but turn back and hugged his daughter very reluctantly. In the end, he got on the boat representing death.
The ship gradually disappeared, and the girl did not know the meaning of death, but in the end she made the first decision in her life and chose to leave.
And then, despite the strenuous uphill, facing the wind and the swaying leaves alone, and a life that has become difficult. Girls, come to this seaside every day, look at the sea in the direction of her father's departure, and gain the power of life.
The wheels don't stop, life doesn't stop. Different people, old people, women, youth, children...everyone the girl meets in her life is riding a bicycle, like a kind of reincarnation.
The girl continued to grow and became a young girl, and for the first time she found out that her father's car was gone, and she truly accepted death.
After that, she had a boyfriend, but after passing this place, she would still look back.
At this time, her life is as wonderful as the gorgeous clouds, but in the quiet night, her thoughts will become stronger and stronger.
Then, married and had children, the family came to the beach to play, the children were playing by the water, not knowing life and death, the husband sat on the shore, thinking, only she was standing on a high place chasing the familiar distance, it seems that at this moment she Feelings of love and death have also become more profound.
The geese flew through the four seasons, and things changed, and she had become an old woman.
When she looked into the distance, the original sea became dry, and some places became wetlands.
If for the child, death is the sea in the distance, then the sea slowly evaporates over time, revealing the wetlands leading to the end of life, which also means that she may have lost her child and husband.
At last the day came when she was dying.
She could only push the bicycle to the beach again, the car fell down, she helped her up, and she fell again... After doing this three times, she finally gave up, just looked back, as if she had completed the end of her life yearning.
She looked for her father's footprints. At this time, the water was completely dry and the grass was overgrown. She saw what looked like the boat that her father used to ride.
She walked over, touched it lightly with her hand, and finally lay contentedly in the boat, as if in her father's arms.
As if being summoned, she woke up, stood up and started running. She became younger and younger as she ran. She became a girl and saw her father. She stopped.
In the end, they hugged tightly and reached a kind of spiritual fit.
This is the animated short "Father and Daughter". There is no dialogue in the whole film, only the right piano music, no obvious face expressions, only ink-like outlines and beautiful blanks, but showing warm and sincere emotions , leaving us with a real moving and eternal aftertaste about life.
I think this is the charm of art!
As the netizens said: use the magic of art, hold on to love, and hold on to the most beautiful and sincere things of true human nature, so that people can be connected. This is the best point of the film.
Life is limited, but it is endless, because love is passed on forever, love transcends time and becomes everyone's most steadfast yearning.
Therefore, although we can see the shortness and insignificance of life in the film, the power of love is so powerful, connecting people and people, heart and heart, life and death, and guiding us to keep moving forward.
