The Village Mark Baker HD

[Acer]

This animation really shows how crab mentality affects people. The broom lady swooping is a thief that steals the apples in secret. The large guy is an abusive husband and a scapegoater. The priest is a fraud and greed, by acting like hes doing the works of God, but rather drinking all the wine in the church. The yellow guy is a greed, hiding all the treasure in his chest. And the old lady is a gossiper, and an incriminator, stalking people, and lying their actions to represent them as a criminal. Because shes a total narcissist who likes putting others down. Aswell as the Prisoner, despite having an open escape, decides to rat out the Man with glasses, because he cannot bear the fact that he accomplished the ability to escape before him.

Compared the village to the ants really contrasts how both societies work. Having the ants have a cooperative society and each ant helping the other out.

I used to live in a village like this where everyone is spying on the other and gossiping about each other... it felt as if I couldn't breathe there and so I moved to the City where no one knows each other. I feel free here... but also a bit lonely. Can't have it all, i suppose. But i wouldn't go back to the village nevertheless.

This is the 7 deadly sins. I didn't see anyone else comment it maybe it got buried. Greed is the man who has the gold, envy is the man who murders greed, wrath is the angry old woman, sloth is the lazy drunk priest, gluttony is the fat woman who steals apples from the village, lust is the man with glasses who despite being innocent couldn't explain his whereabouts due to being with another man's wife (he's not evil it just shows how it can get you in trouble because envy blames him for the murder because once again he is envious). Pride is the prisoner who would rather sit in prison then to free himself by lust's escape tunnel.

The sound of the ants 🐜 walking is so good

Small villages in Spain are like this. LITERALLY

It is beautiful how even with few words you have been able to tell so much and arouse such emotions.

I think the hymn says "Send praise to God and praise them all, the God of all creation. The God above, the Lord of love, the God of our salvation."

I literally had no idea this short came out in 1993. I was actually a toddler around that time. But to find out that it was out back then and I see people commenting on other channels like what are we gonna see a part two? I’m like yeah this does not deserve a part 2 it deserves to be left as it is

People go to church and praise God with hymns, odes, and Psalms, but later do horrible has a treasure chest hidden under his bed, a wife cheating on her husband, an old lady seeking to expose people, the priest spitting on prisoners and drinking himself to death, the aforementioned husband treating his wife like a maid and seeking to steal his neighbor's is what we call:secularization! Reminds me of a verse from the Book of Isaiah:"Those people praise me with their mouths, but their hearts fell away from

The Village is often viewed as a mirror to society, especially in how it addresses themes of conformity, individual freedom, and social control. Created during a time when Eastern Europe was under heavy political influence and censorship, Jiří Trnka's The Village can be interpreted as a quiet critique of totalitarianism and the suppression of individuality.

Vim do Instagram. Nunca vi esse curta na minha vida. Estou vendo pela primeira vez em 2024.

Here's my analysis:
The ant colony represents a utopia ( or at best a better economy ) than the village. There are several occurrences of them after the results of chaos caused by the people potentially symbolizing how dirty society can be. The ants may symbolize a restoration after chaos, death, and sin.

The allegory of the village focuses on the 7 deadly sins in renditions of people.
The following timestamps will cover how each of them commit their respective sins:

1:27 Gluttony
1:45 Sloth
2:37 Greed
2:47 Envy
3:48 Wrath
5:44 Lust
10:30 Pride

People like Wrath, Sloth, Gluttony, & Envy can blend into society easily. It is even worse that there are people like this in real life.

I remember watching this when I was so small why is it so good
