Autumn Tree

Share Collapse

April 20, 1999. The world was in shock as camera footage was shown on television of SWAT teams evacuating students out of an american high school. It was the last moments of a terrible tragedy that cost 13 victims their lives and left many more severly injured. The two responsible, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, turned out to be 2 teenage students themselves of Columbine High, making the motivation of the tragedy even more uncomprehendable.


Autumn Tree is a story based on the lives of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold. Whitout it being a complete reconstruction, it shows the situation before and during the tragedy. For more information we would strongly recommend to read the authors comments in te menu.


Just a few words considering AT. Alot of this movie is fact based. Do you think we made up the Natural Born Killer poster? Fact is that Eric Harris even codenamed the tragedy 'NBK'. Also allmost all the situations really happened. Dylan taping Eric, the friend who they spared in front of school, the 'Do you believe in God' conversation.... Know the facts before you start to write a 2 paged opinion about their motives when you have no idea what you are talking about. We dont know what was the cause, we simply try to show it from all angles, close to how it really was.


Also the dialogue in the last scene was taken from what they literally said during the massacre.

What happened at that school was... Very unfortunate.

However if you corrupt someone enough the result will be the same.

This was some nice animation the characters are good and voices too maybe some added subtitles anyways nice film

Kick a dog enough, they’re bound to bite back. People are no different

HOLY sHİT

Wait...Is Dylans hair purple in this animation?It's just a small thing,but it's weird seeing him with purple hair-

AndieCiambotti responds:

Howdy! That is not neither Dylan or Eric, our short is only inspired by Columbine. Please don't take this as an attempt to faithfully represent that crime, we made this six years after 1999 and every piece of information was very shady back then (and still is). Hope this helps to clarify a lot of the "misrepresentations" that this short is despised for? by a lot of researchers of Columbine.
