The story is very touching, although it is a cartoon, it is so real that people can't help crying. This also shows a truth: the moving part of a story is not only about the actors, or even the form of expression, but about the core of the story and the idea that the story wants to convey. This can be said to be the formal cause emphasized by Aristotle. This is the key to artistic aesthetics. Whether it is dramas, poems, novels, music or art in literature, what matters is not the external expression skills, but the ideas behind the works. And this short film, although the protagonists are not "people", can convey to us many factors that touch our hearts.
