It's unfortunate that when you're different you are likely to be treated as an outcast and only be accepted once you've "shown your value" to a level that is beyond reasonable. And even then there are those that don't accept you yet.
這就是
世界
@@user-co4oq4nv9z fair, but unfortunate nonetheless.
@@rikschaaf 認同
It's the Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer lesson all over again.
Then become a vilain znd spread the message that you didn't cause this unspeakable evil
6:48 you can't changed everyone's opinion on you so fast but those who do.. they will support you even if they're just on the sideline.. i love how they added this reality here..
Just like X-Men movies. Those people never accept them as mutants
They will not accept us!
That was beautiful. I love the music and I love the troll girl. I love that the nun, although initially startled by the unusual appearance of the baby left on her doorstep, quickly warms up to her as she's still a baby in need of warmth and a home.
Yes she was a true nun with God's Love in her heart 🙂💖
To the nun, the troll girl was one of God’s creations. And not a descendant of the dark creatures who found no refugee on the Ark. That’s what I think she would think.
I may be baptized but I’m more open minded. Basically if I see a child regardless of what species be human, troll, or other wise I care for it. Being an infant she is neither good nor evil it’s more on the upbringing that molds them.
@@Coyoteprimeagreed
I agree
Ngl when I saw the nun's hair I thought she was a boy.
I believe the blue flame was meant to keep the evil creatures at bay. If the troll girl can use it without burning herself then she was meant to be a guardian of that town.
I would disagree. That means she would owe protection to the town, but she doesn’t. She’s just a child. The town should be responsible for protecting her, not the other way around. Stoning is deadly. They had every intention at multiple points of not just letting her die but actively killing her. When her guardian is gone, she will have nothing to hold her there.
I think the blue flame is the guardian of the town as it shows some sentients and her being able to touch it is because the flame accepts her as a part of the town
This needs to blow up so bad. The way you animated the little troll baby, with the little baby sounds, had me start tearing up and crying out of nowhere. And seeing the little girl being ostracized, and the anxiety and confusion when her nun mother disappeared, looking around what’s familiar for her, like some kind of spacial impermanence. I often think of how sweet innocent children had to handle and deal with being mistreated through human history for being different. A lot of our outlooks change with culture, but childhood is one of those experiences I feel unite our species regardless of time.
This is beautiful! To see her demonstrate her power, and then show the townspeople ‘i could have used it against you all these years, but didn’t’ before they let her pass was painful, but i’m glad she’s not hiding anymore
ya wish she did tho. sometimes lessons gotta be taught n learned. but gotta keep the "good troll girl" vibe...
sigh. oh well. i still liked. 😁
@@ssppeeaarr if she did, they’d just say she’s the monster they all feared she was, and her relationship with the town would only worsen. It’s always good to solve matters without violence
This film was absolutely beautiful and it's so nice to see a nun portrayed in a good light. It's especially rare to see that in today's day and age. Wonderful work!
Yeah because my late aunt was a nun for over 50 years and she was one of the best people I ever knew. I still to this day have a lot of respect for nuns even after I went from Catholic to Protestant. She stood by me and I was glad to have known her. She was principal of a Catholic school in Valley Stream NY and has that street named after her. She left behind a great legacy. I just don't understand why people make out all nuns to be harsh and evil. Most of them just want to help others and do the right thing while expecting nothing in return.
@@TheNijikazegirl
I'd say it's mostly because they were people's first introduction to extremists, so even if most were loving and kind people, many were scarred by the impressions they had of them.
Plus, the awful ones tended to stick closely together.
most nuns are genuinely terrible people who actively uphold an awful, harmful institution & ideology through their profession. it's not a wonder that people would tend to see them badly. a fantasy nun in a fantasy world with magic and monsters is obviously different, lol.
I never saw any negative nun propaganda. Maybe some rude comments but not massively. I didn't know that was a thing really.
Hundreds of years ago when the story takes place this was sometimes the only life for a woman who did not want to marry and be a mother or wished to be a scholar or pursue music or any other sort of life in this culture. In some orders there was more independence.
For some reason, I sense a Puss in Boots and a little bit of Quasimodo vibe from this. In a good way, the motherly nun takes in the troll girl and she sees her as a precious child despite her appearance. It’s never easy being different in a world that’s black and white. I’m glad that they’re people who supported the troll girl and her mother. Bless those ladies.
It gives me Teenage Robot vibes
No matter how many people tell you who you are or what are you suppose to be..... It's only you who can say your worth and what you're capable of doing.
True words.
Ultimately, it can’t just be your friends or family telling you that you are important, you have to realize you are important, too. But it does help to know that you are loved ❤
This has to be one of the best CG short films I've seen for a while now. It is very relevant to today's world.
How is it relevant? I agree it’s a marvelous short film but is it supposed to be an allegory for current events?
What a beautiful short film! The Troll Girl’s design kind of reminds me of a Trollhunters character, and I feel like even though not a word is spoken I know so much about her & her adoptive mother.
Who could stop a gang of men w pitchforks and torches with a LOOK??? HAD to be the moms-the fear in the guy’s eyes 😂😂😂
Ahh, the Classic tale of Someone who is Different and because they are Different, they are rejected by almost everyone, but then they use their differences to help solve a problem and then everyone accepts them. A classic trope for many stories.
When society has decided you're a monster, you don't have the luxury of being human. No more temper. No more being petty or distancing yourself from the people that hate you.
Once society decides you're a monster, you either become a saint to fit in or let yourself become what they think you are.
Sweet story!! Beautiful!! I love the nun too! ❤️ so often nuns are depicted poorly and unhuman in secular culture or presentations. All the nuns I know have been so kind like this one! truly appreciated! Thank you! 🙏🏻
Yeah, I studied in Catholic Schools and indeed, there are very good nuns that I think would make better Moms than some out there...
Sadly, media only concentrate on the bad ones....
Same, its co cute to see nun being a wonderful person in the trolls life ^-^
Same here
Such a great variety of characters. Even if we only know most of them by the facial expressions and small deeds, it's those small touches that make this simple, familiar tale all the more richer. And the main character and her chief supporter take center stage by going the extra miles to take care of each other.
We all have to see ourselves in a positive light, regardless of what the world thinks, and I love how the troll girl comes to realize that after she saves her nun-mother and goes back home ❤
Wow! This reminds me of Cartoon Saloon celtic movies like a mix between Wolfwalkers and The Secret of Kells. Her nun mom was adorable too!
You noticed it's the old women of the village who defend the relationship of the Nun with her child in a manner of speaking because they understand the truth of it which the others do not.
I really love these type of 2d drawing style. It has become less and less popular comparing to 3d, moreover the story and mood is very beautiful.
I’m glad she stayed with nun mum
Magnificent and extraordinary story of a trollish child raised by a kind nun in the human village. The girl has a special ability to control blue fire with her own hands and transform to her enormous size when she gets angry. I love it. Magic, excitement and adventure. Creatures like this troll girl deserves respect from all of the world and be treated as equals the way we humans do for one another.
True agape love knows no bounds. Christ was a great example of that.
Love the story and man the kindness one shows to someone who doesn't look at appearances and the dark side of those who doe judge others for that.....while they will hurt you, know there are many people who care about you and wont judge you they are out there❤
This has more heart then the average Misney animation has had in years.
the Outcast become the hero trope is rare, but enjoyable as hell.
Simplesmente lindíssimo!!! Quando a menina assume o seu poder pessoal e descobre que não é um monstro, mas uma heroína!!! Maravilhoso!!!
Even if you are different, the important thing is that your heart is kind and pure
Such a beautiful story and especially the end rip the grandfather.
Individuals as well as society can put up with BS only so long. The Troll girl finally becomes welcomed to society.
🙋🏼
Nice art direction. Congrats for the animation 🎉
When I saw the thumbnail, my brain flew immediately to Homestuck
Wow, that is quite a great animation! Very well done Kay Carmichael (and others)!
Beautiful animation. I hope to see more of your work in the future.
The whole thing is pretty but can we just take a moment to appreciate the night sky like omg.
Trolls are people to, we deserve the same rights and recognition as Humans
This was a wonderful, short and sweet... eh short. It's a simple story that's simply well done, and I love it.
Those backgrounds are GORGEOUS!!
There, Is more than just the outside!!!❤
I love Troll Girl! She's adorable! X3 Also, didn't know trolls could manipulate fire or Hulk out!
This is beautiful! I love it more that nobody had to die at any point in time.
Beautiful animation style. Reminds me of the original Walt Disneys. So warm. Wonderful tale
Wonderful short! Beautifully animated and written. I liked how at the end the village Women's Circle intervened and let everyone know to leave the girl be :).
I would love to see this turned in to a full length film.
Me too!!!
Agreedd
its literally Brave/ hundreds of other films/storys
me to
@@SpookyScaryGangRapingSkeleton So?
This was so cute! And brilliant in how it introduces you to the characters in such a short amount of time. I really hope this becomes a film or a show or something bigger one day. I’m already so invested in Troll girl’s possible adventures! Also we stan the nun mom with her goofy run XD
I like that.
I liked the story, I liked that the religious lady was earnestly trying to help; I liked that the townies weren't totally dense and warmed to Troll Girl once they got the bigger picture about the attack.
Can we talk about how cute the troll baby girl's smile is? :)))
The baby troll girl is so adorable
Wish this was a series 💕
I was a trollgirl, too. My mother "made" me this way. I am always a bit different. But now i am proud about it. Nobody will hurt me again. 💪🏻
im a non-passing trans woman with problematic disabilities so i relate to the troll girl. i often wish i was pretty instead of ugly, & stable instead of mentally unstable. i liked this short film a lot.
@@AuntBibby You are NOT ugly! If we pass each other on the street we wouldn't be able to recognize each other. But you are NOT ugly. Do you see people run away from you? No? You are not ugly.
When I was fifteen, i started eating. Every night. One year later i got twenty kilogram heavier.
At age eighteen i was about 100kg. Nobody recognized me as a woman. I was just the fat friend of the pretty girl. The buddy you like to spend time with.
About ten years later i got a Burnout. Three months just sleeping. Twenty hours a day. I was to tired to eat. After these three months i went out for the first time. And it seem to me like all men watched me. It was crazy. I lost thirty kilogram and that makes me interessting to those guys never want to talk to me before? 🤬
I am no peace of meat! I was pretty all the time and i am right now! You didn't want me then? You can NOT have me now.
So, you are never ugly! You surely have a sensitive mindset. You feel things before others recognize them. Be prout of yourself! It isn't easy to live your life, but you do. ❣️
I'm autistic and I'm related to the troll girl
this is beautiful, shes a precious lil thing.
i love the simplicity of the artwork. the colors are simple but stand out very well.
This reminds me a lot of an animated film we'd have seen in the early-mid 2000s. And I mean that in a good way.
BEAUTIFUL piece!! I LOVED it!! You all did an AMAZING job!! Keep it up! I can’t WAIT to see more!! ☺️🙂
It's really beautiful the animation and the story. Thank you really very much ❤
The nun is that girls mother because she loves her for her. And when the townsfolk saw how she didn't hurt them they show support. The people who didn't might need time
The ladies understand, it’s like they can sense the mother instinct the nun had
this was breathtaking!
this just proves that all beings are capable of being kind, but not all those who look like monsters are monsters, but that most times, human beings are the real monsters. it isn't what you look like, but rather what you do, what actions you take against others, that proves just how big a monster you are.
This is beautiful! i love the style and the art is so soft looking!
i love how the townswomen at the end are like OH NO YOU DON'T. 😁♥️
That was powerful
What makes a person human isn't what they look like, but their character and actions and that little troll girl was more human than most. That's the lesson to be taken here. You don't proclaim yourself human, you just _be_ human.
Even, a Monster, needs respect.
Whose story is simple and straightforward never judge a person or in this case a troll by their appearance
I wish I could join this community of creative animators.
Beautiful animation I especially love how the night sky is portrayed the stars they’re so beautiful.
I love the design of everything in this short. From the people to the troll girl and the monster. I hope that the village will one day at except her. But at least she has her nun mother.
Beautifully done! I applaud everyone involved.
Beautiful flame work!
Wonderful story
it warms my heart
A very very good and beautiful story !
I loved it ! Thank you so much ! 💚
Stunning, beautiful style
I bet she ends up exploring the forest, spending more time in there, and eventually just visiting her adoptive mom occasionally =)
Beautiful short film 🎞️ 🍿🥤awesome 👏🏻 thank u for sharing ☮️💖
Lovely…I cried…
This is gorgeous!
Teachers when a student is getting bullied: 2:18
Criativa e bela!!! Merecia um longa metragem, desde que elaborado pelos mesmos realizadores!!! ❤❤❤❤
This was beautiful. Great work!
You have to love yourself as you are, you shouldn't change everything about yourself just because you are uncomfortable with it. I really connected with that when the Nun threw away the cloak. Love yourself to the core, changing everything about yourself won't make you happier.
This was so beautifully done
Thanks Kay, great animation 👍
Well hopefully she gets accepted and gets a happy ending if there is a sequel or two.
This is such a beautiful story. Embrace who and what you are!
You sure she's a troll? She's covered in fur. And she's walking in the sun, She shoulda turned to stone. I think she's a Bugbear.
Depends on the troll. The trolls in Elder scrolls for example have fur and are just fine in sunlight.
Amazing job! That is so beautiful!
Beautiful. I’m so glad I came across this. Thank you ❤
This should be a full length movie
Nice art direction. Congrats for the animation . Nice art direction. Congrats for the animation .
Marcello Studer - I'm 'Bout To Die Again
Awesome.
You can say a lot without words.
This deserves a whole movie.
I love this so much! Thank you for making this film.
that was beautiful.
awe that was my favorite cloak
Incredible!
Ideas like this has made me wonder if Earth could've had a second Species that forced us to learn to coexist with overtime, bridge differences and realize there were common similarities to share. Instead Humanity's ancient History is nothing but eradicating everything different.
We did have others around, homosapians mated with them. Now we carry minor amounts of their DNA.
BRAVO!!!!!
I like the video and animation so far, (at 2:21 right now) only think that bothered me is the fact that when the troll was blushing, it isn’t how real blushing works for people who ain’t what people consider “caucasion” or “white”
This was just so beautiful! Love it
