The film is a very weird film, because I could not understand what is the gift in the film after I watched it. However, when I could understand this film and the meaning of the gift, I want to watch the film again. When I understand the meaning of the gift and do not understand it, the feeling of the film is different, I think. The setting of the film is different from our world, so I think many people cannot follow this story from the beginning to the end. There are not many conversations, however, on the contrary, we need to think what is the gift and about the film. If there are many conversations, we have much information and we are bored watching the film, so I think this quantity is good. Also, I can think freely from the end of the film after watch in it, so it is the good point of the film. The fascination of the film is compacted in a short time, so please check it many times.

This film is a short film that was made by starting off by receiving only lines of dialogue. The director and screenwriter start off from scratch and create their own story using only those words. They are only allowed to use the words given, and other film makers competed to make the best film using the same lines. The setting of this film is assumed to be during World War II at the time of the Holocaust. Three little boys dressed in uniforms step into a house. They notice someone is behind the rack. One boy follows the shadow while the others runaway in fear. There he meets a Jewish girl and they talk like there is nothing between them to dislike. The story turns out to be a very heart warming one. I enjoyed watching this film, and I can understand why this film was awarded first place!
