As one who studies film, in particular short, this movie typifies everything I love about art in it's truest form. Viewers face an emotional rollercoaster with the main character of good vs evil, love vs hate, throughout, which takes you through a whirlwind of passion. I believe this short film so eloquently sums up ones constant battle with time, the one through battle that no man shall ever conquer, and the need to cherish those around you before time itself runs out. Narrated to perfect tone and pace to suck the viewer in to an enchanting community, with the intricacy of the relationships ensuring that the onlooker is at the edge of the seat throughout. Passion turns to sadness, sadness turns to hatred and hatred turns to remorse which ultimately turns to key decisiveness in the face of adversity. I feel this really displays the power love can have on a man, while in the depths of despair.

Wow, visually stunning. Unnerving.

Saw this on a post midnight showing on RTE. Sumptuous visuals, eerie story and thought-provoking allegorical storyline. Reminded me strongly of Tim Burton in a purely positive way. Can't believe this was made in Ireland and that I'm just the second IMDb comment. Bravo sir.
