I'm the narrator in this! Everyone! I hope you enjoy Sihan's stunning and hauntingly beautiful film! It was very cool and an honor to work on this project! Congratulations again and thank you for having me, Sihan! ❤
Honestly I rlly relate with being scared of death since a young age. When I was in middle school, I started getting bullied and it quickly shaped me into an overthinker, which lead to me thinking about death ALL the time. If I was in a car, I’d get flashes of images of the car crashing and my dead body, if I’m on the stairs, I’d see myself falling to my death, or when it’s really quiet at night, I’d stay up thinking it’s gonna be the end of the world because the sun will explode in the next billions of years or dinosaurs will come back and i’d die- RIDICULOUS, I know. But I cried about all of them out of intense fear that I’d die. I was 11-13 and all I could think about was death. But when I started entering high school, it’s kinda funny but I met some awful awful teachers who got me over my fear of dying and instead made me want it💀 However, that fear of myself dying had turned into fear of loved ones dying instead, like if my parents cough while they’re eating, my first thought is they’re choking, or if I see my great grandpa on a hospital bed, it feels like I’m never gonna see him again and I still cry about it haha. Guess I still have a few things fo work on
I totally understand how you feel! I’m still somewhat scared and have similar thoughts, but it’s not nearly as bad as when I was younger. It started when I was maybe in third grade and didn’t stop until maybe seventh. It was a mix of fears of me dying and my family. I didn’t want to believe it was going to happen one day, but I knew better. I specifically remember 2012 being a super rough year and dreading Christmas time. I guess that’s why I haven’t enjoyed Christmas since then, because I was filled with anxiety.
I wish I still could've been afraid of my dad dying... Be glad that your loved ones are alive instead of being afraid of their death. Life comes and goes. Death is a peaceful thing instead of scary. It will come one day. Just make the best of your life until death comes. And cherish your loved ones until they're gone too
hi pls read this comment this might be life changing for you the way it was for me, You could very possibly be suffering from OCD i have OCD and i used to feel this way all the time too, but after i read this article that basically told me to accept it and say "Yes (whatever i fear is going to happen) is going to happen, or it has already happened, and i just accept it, no matter how hard it is you have to do it, ive done it and now these thoughts appear so rarely i hardly remember its there,
this is a pretty long vent and practically my life story so just be prepared// i can relate to this. i was only 5-6 im honestly not sure. but i remember crying in my bedroom for many nights about death. it scared me. im christian and i remember crying to God that i would go to heaven because everything scared me. after that i just went on. still scared but it was more in the background. i felt like after that i didn’t really think about it for years. until my older sisters classmate and his brother died in a car crash. it was a huge thing at my school (they and two others who survived were going to a sports event out of state. they shouldn’t have been allowed to go on their own). i remember that phone call. i didn’t understand why my sister was crying. i didn’t realize it was awful of my dad to say it’s not a big deal because she wasn’t his best friend (although they did know each other). i was just a confused 3rd grader not knowing the severity of the situation. skipping years ahead. in 8th grade a friends dad died. it was out of nowhere. it was hard. then the next year in 9th grade another classmates dad died. it was heartbreaking. all of it was just awful. it’s scared me. i feel like my parents are in danger (i was especially scared in 10th grade). i remember having an anxiety attack because i heard my phone ringing and i thought it was someone calling that my mom got in a car crash. it was irrational but i almost collapsed when it started. last year was pretty bad with that fear. i was scared a lot and aging scared me. i used to be so infatuated by the idea of my death (i was really mentally ill then) but last year it was my greatest fear. still is. im hoping that i’ll be ok later. maybe i should get help for it because some days it just eats me. it’s ok at the moment. anyway that was a lot 😅 ok im done
As someone that’s quite young and fears death, it’s quite similar to my feelings. I always thought death is terrifying. The fact when you die, you can’t be alive again. I just want to be immortal. It might be miserable, but I want to live as long as I can…
This film is literally so breath-taking. Idk how or why this film does not have a million likes already but you are doing amazing work! Your story, your art, you message really shined throughout this film. Death is such a sad but beautiful thing. Thank you truly for sharing your heart with us! Please continue to make beautiful pieces like this! Never stop believing in yourself! :) ❤💖✨💞
i remember when i was ~7 years old i heard a song that went something like "we all want to fall asleep, not die" (rough translation from russian). i think i experienced baby's first existential dread because this made me feel so cold and yucky inside. now i think that maybe those words were referencing the nature of suicidal thoughts? but back then i just was terrified.
This is my favorite by far! The style is immaculate and stunning! The sounds are chilling, and the dialogue beautifully poetic. Well done, incredible work
Absolutly incredible and just what i neaded to watch. The wispers of fear have been stopping my head in the form of panic attacks. And each panic attack comes with a stronger and stronger dissoconect from my body, and literally last night I thought it was over. I thought id never fall asleep with the fear going uncontious would make me loose all connection with my body. I thought i understood my dissasociations last year, but after yesterday i dont want to understand my dissasociations ever again. Mental illness is very very very real, more real then i couldve imagine. Genuinally love yourself, your anxiety is lying to you It feels surreal to me to wake uo to this in my reccomendations for seemingly no reason. Its related to nothing ive watched. Its like the algorithm knows how to pander to my existential crisis and thats such a personal thing, i dont want to say its just an algorithm tho. I wanna feel watched over cus i dont believe it. You made beautiful work
i feel this came at the best time for me. i’ve recently had a surgery and it really put things into perception. i regretted wishing i would die, and id break down whenever anyone said they’d kill themselves. i’ve been terrified of death since i was a toddler, i wouldn’t sleep crying to my mother about how i didn’t wanna die, at three years old. every year or two since then, i’d struggle to sleep for a long period of time, so utterly horrified by the dread of knowing death. at some point, maybe i was 7, i was convinced i’d die before my next birthday. the day before, i was able to accept without saying goodbye, and i wish i could of kept that thought. i was comfortable, relieved of sorts. and i can’t go back to that acceptance, even though i had it right there. i woke up the next day, and i can’t remember if i was relieved or not. i don’t want to come to terms, because that’s like resigning to me, but i don’t want to suffer forever. i don’t feel happy
Can we just actually appreciate the animation and the artstye?? The animation is so smooth and the art is like a painting! The narrator's voice fits this very well 💕✨
Wow, this is incredible. I hope I can make something like this someday. This is so inspiring, the animation, the dialogue, just everything about it makes me excited to take a shot at making something like this. This is for sure one of my favorite Calarts films I’ve seen, this is beautiful!! ❤❤❤
my gosh this is beautiful. death has always been something i was scared of as young as you were. the inability to grasp the concept that i would no longer exists and experiencing dying would be a moment (the last moment) in my life i would experience was too much for my young brain to handle. you're words are so calming and true, and the animation is gorgeous. sending love.

Hey buddy that sounds like it may be OCD, you should look into "intrusive thoughts"
As someone that’s quite young and fears death, it’s quite similar to my feelings. I always thought death is terrifying. The fact when you die, you can’t be alive again. I just want to be immortal. It might be miserable, but I want to live as long as I can…
Same
im glad im not alone in thinking this way
lot’s of love to those who relate

Very poetic dialogue and insight on time. Gorgeous style, like I'm in a dream of sorts.

The art style, the animation style, the narration, this is all awesome! Love this.

谢谢QwQ

The music at 1:11 is beautiful.. is there a longer version?
This is so underrated!!
Death is around every corner, kinda cute ngl
If only people could stop giving a birth to another conscious being and allow humankind to vanish...
If that’s your logic, then you should vanish right now.
Bro this was ossam
IT'S NICE
My blood needs to be full with animated short films
I do no longer fear death, for we all are made to die.
Enjoy the ride, it will end anyways.
I'm low-key disappointed, why isn't this more popular??
🖤
