The journey of the life same like this... We think we will win when we reach at the end point but we will get old to reach that point.

Love the “Wilson” touch👍🏻
Great video.

My god, only in dreams can you create ... I feel alive when I watch this. Pure genius. I want to go to sleep and try to dream . A dream like this.

I loved the nod to Castaway with Wilson in the corner of his hut 🛖! Touché

Нас много, но каждый на своём острове. Одиночество. Надеяться можно только на себя. А взаимовыручка? А дружба? А Род?Пора объединяться

Yeah, we keep trying to get to a better place. It all depends though, is it really better?
What we need and what we want are two different things.
Well played metaphors. Kudos!
👍👏👌

That was heartbreaking on more levels than I would’ve thought possible…

When I was a kid I looked forward to the weekly International Animation Festival with Jean Marsh on PBS. This was reminiscent of that.

This is absolutely gorgeous. I love the style.

Es una hermosa metáfora que queda al descubierto al final del vídeo, los países aparentemente son islas desconectadas unas de otras, pero siempre hay que tender puentes de unas con otras para unirlas, y esa conexión que debe servir para unir no es más que una simple sonrisa.

[migsvalienteart]

I like the animation style. Unexpected ending.

[pylon]

Bit of a 'Riven' vibe going on there, loved the little easter eggs.

[visalakshik.raman.]

Try, try, try again.
It is better to try and fail rather than
Sit tight and wait in vain.
He has found a new problem to solve now 🤣

[strangeland]

Life is a series of problems to solve, when troubles come, gather the tools again and build your ship and set sail, when you run short, receive it, break down and after some time gather the pieces again. Along the journey you end up picking valuable material, your ship will sail longer and you will reach more destinations. Dear RJ and KWC
