Well sung, well animated, great songs and compelling construction. Particularly great choreography -- just a really nice piece of work. Very nice!
A man reflects on formative conflicts from his past with optimism, gratitude, and a little music.

An amazing music video
The dancing really made this even more fun awsome job indeed on a welldone music video style you really take this style to the next level making it pop at every scene An amazing music video if I do say so myself I really like what you have created here and hope you create even more so keep up the amazing film work.
~~SUGGESTED IDEAS~~
Entertaining make more of this

Opening night like: opening up! Ah. Got it. And all those little glimpses... really was more than I expected it to be. Introspective and entertaining both, and even more so as expressive as it is.
Feels like I might've learned something from this too.

Excellent stuff all the way through.
I'm not surprised this won all those awards. The animation and the song are both hell of smooth.
