This animation is an entry for the Bad Dream theme of the Animation Jam.

I admit, this is a weird one. It makes one ask more questions than it gives answers to whoever watches this. But a mystery is better than none. It doesn't make it easy to make sense of it, because where's the fun in that? I'd love to hear what you think is happening here. Enjoy.

PS

I couldn't find some way to tell this story in a shorter time frame, in 15 secs or so. This was supposed to be longer actually, and could have been more polished but there was only so much I could make within a month so I had to compromise. Hopefully this story will make more sense to you guys once the rest of the animation jam themes start rolling in!
