This is a great animation for more than just how well it's done. What really makes a great piece of art is how it gets you to think and see your own interpretation. This could be about addiction, this could be about living life to its fullest, this could be about anything you believe it is. And that's the beauty of it.

Better to die happy doing something you love...than to die slowly doing something you hate. The moral of life!

[markquickfall]

I am no philosopher or deep thinker. Loved this movie. It moved me. Great work guys!

[upsideken]

I can see this in three way
1) life with freedom
2) addiction
3) corruption

This short movie can tell a story without any words.

To those who don't get it: The robots were all being forced to work and bang their head against the wall, but the green robot had enough and he went out to do what he loved the most. Surfing. Even though he died while doing it because of the damage, he made the better choice between being forced to work and enjoying life. He chose the better option.

[pwnmeisterage]

Why does everyone assume the robot died? All we really know is that he didn't come back to shore and he didn't go back to work.
For all we know, he could be walking to California in the hopes of more sunny beaches and maybe hooking up with a cute Silicon Valley technician who'll help him work out that squeaky rust.

I love how you mix CGI with real life it's cool

I find pairing this one ("Finito") and another animated short called "Clockwork" interesting. They both have the same basic plot: robots work in some vast contraption and some robot(s) get broken, but have very different messages. In "Finito" the workplace is depicted as mind-numbingly dull and pointless and the "broken" robot is one who chooses to neglect work and live life to the hilt by surfing, even though that destroys it (what a cut to the surfing, it just makes you smile). It's got an individualist message about living your life (with an edge that that hedonism might be self-destructive) rather than be a cog in a pointless social machine since we all die anyway (the rusted clock at the end). In "Clockwork" by contrast, the work is depicted as delicate and a bit magical, like the robots themselves, and the story is about a manager robot who very gently and carefully fixes worker robots to keep a huge clock going. In "Clockwork" (which is much quieter) the message is a more collectivist one about how if treated well, everyone can contribute, everyday kindness and satisfaction in cooperation (although there is a faint edge that the robot lives are a bit constrictive and the clock might be pointless maybe?). I liked both a lot it's just interesting.

its not about how long your life is, its about how happy you live your life.

4:02 The surfer somehow just stamped one of the papers. Spooky.

[josegonzalez-qwcx]

He visto un montón de estas animaciones de cgi y esta es de las que mas me ha gustado, pues desde joven tengo la idea de que la vida va mas de calidad que de cantidad, gracias por subir el vídeo.

[mezanmi]

I love how the other robot was so concerned for the one surfing. It was so sad when he realized he went surfing and never came back :, (

[jadencalloway]

He did what he wanted. A true robot (btw im crying)

[LiminalParadowski]

That Moment is beyond words 4:15, Existentially touching.

[cheesecake]

Personally I think that it's like a metaphor for doing drugs or things in that sort. I think the daily stamping they do is like a normal daily work routine everyone follows and then they go home. But that one dude goes surfing. Even though it might feel amazing and give him the kick to be able to continue working normally it hurts it and the machine begins to become unfunctional. The caring one tries to help in the end to maybe free him from the addiction, but it refuses and continues doing it till death.

[wolverineprime]

I bang my head against a wall every time i see a politician too

[greenlamps]

Whoever animates this can do no wrong.

[TottoG]

the moral is its better to die doing the things that give you individualism than wasting your life doing something unfulfilling. the robot felt unfulfilled stamping that stamp day in day out and eventually it had enough and went out to do what it loved, to surf. Even though it ended up killing the robot, which the robot was aware of by its increasing weakness, it comes down to being happy or unhappy and the robot went to be happy
