In the delivery of the Oscar awardsThe talent of great directors, or of great actors or actresses participating in feature films, is not only recognized. But a lot of attention is also paid to new promises that enrich the daily poetry of the audiovisual world, with different, although close proposals. And it is that the genre of the short film is sometimes forgotten, which I consider painful, since the first works of any director are usually short. As well as, and relegated a bit to a lower category, are audiovisuals made in animation.
Although the favorite, it was believed, was Presto by Pixar, the winner for best animated short at the Oscars was «The House of Small Cubes«, From Japanese Kunio kato. An award that I consider very deserved, since the work he has done is impeccable, both from the script and from the realization. With 2D animation techniques, that is, drawing by drawing, he has produced a film of approximately 10 minutes that reveals the underworld of a man alone, although with a past buried under the ocean of life.
Here is the short film for you to enjoy.
