Odd is an Egg (2016) User Reviews

beautiful. in profound sense

[Kirpianuscus · 5 October 2022]

Just lovely. It is the first impression and, in essence, the most powerful. And just the simple one , because this short film reminds old, fundamental truths defining each of us.

A film about fears and the loneliness as protector wall.

About a shy boy and a free girl , about a honey jar and about a fall solving everything in the most happy way.

About friendship and about the other as answer to our incertitudes.

And, sure, about a hard - boiled egg and a charming bee. The result is great because you feel the story as a very inspired parable , proposing fair essence of options and fears and metamorphosis, in a very original manner.

So, a great small animation.

Imaginative and Sweet

Great storytelling. High quality animation work. Very entertaining with a surprising twist. Great for the whole family. I've only seen a version with subtitles, which I typically prefer for foreign films. The voice-acting work is high-quality as well (great inflection and never too "over-the-top."). Was it a sweet, quirky, boy-meets-girl sort of film? Absolutely! But it's so amusing and very well done. Beautiful artistry.

The movie is sweet without being saccharine or preachy. The film was a winner of the Jury award for best animated short at the Tribeca film festival. It was also nominated for the Crystal Bear for best short film in the Generation KPL. UST competition at the Berlin International film festival. Well deserved honors!
