Whew! My heart raced at every minute on this masterpiece. This is a story of love, survival, and how precious life really is. It's not that life is short but we waste so much of it. Beautiful metaphor!!

A mother's love is revealed so wonderfully, I feel sorry for the mother bird, choosing one of her children on the verge of destruction is more difficult than death for a mother. The fate of some famous fathers is also shown with admiration

[raiyanarko]

she didn't even hesitate to kick that egg and jumped instantly, without giving a second thought, realizing the intensity of the moment...
shows how much stronger her personality is compared to her mate...
great film

Haven’t seen something this funny since Scrat.

[cathiepelton]

Gripping and serious. My heart goes out to those that made this and all of us. Beautifully done. Let’s hope for a less serious future.

[BlackBilby]

I like the lesson about if you are selfish you will perish. Greatanimation, story and fantastic soundtrack.

[lawrencecole]

Once your eggs sprout legs of their own, that's when it gets hard.

The Trolley Problem has never been so wonderfully illustrated. The egg in the tree...while a flightless bird looks up at it, damned near slayed me. Great film!

[KnightGeneral]

That gave me Anxiety but all is well that ends well. Shows who the real parent is.

[dudotolivier]

J'ai d'abord cru que cela allait être un court-métrage à l'humour noir, avec les oiseaux terrestres incapable de voler stupide dont l'espèce s'éteint quoi qu'il arrive à la fin en dépit de leur efforts et après des tas de gags et moments drôles de ces efforts en question....

Mais non, là, c'est un happy ending (à ma grande surprise).

Par ailleurs, les oiseaux en question font plus pensé à des Drontes de Rodriguez (oiseau éteint relatif au Dodo) qu'aux Dodo lui-même.

[EyeSeeThruYou]

This was saddening, especially the dead parent at the end, floating by. 😢

[wotzatfa]

Superbe ! Sous tous les aspects.

Les facteurs limitant les gars, les facteurs limitant !

[yushikuang]

Make me laugh so hard! If she had choosing a brave, hearted and little bit smarter companion… reminds me some couples in real life😅

[TaneKarnes]

Great animation and story. Would have been cool to see a little shark fin following the one at the end. 🤪

[sankaranarayanan]

Wow.

Bravo pour la vidéo et pour la médaille !

[tsbrownie]

[peponeslotproject]
