This short movie has a deep meaning. It showed us that most of people lost their creativty and their happiness because of system. Working like a robots, studying things thay they actually don't like it. To anyone who read this, if you're a student like me, don't be sad. Maybe you feel unconfident cause you have bad score in some classes, but it's okay. I know everyone have their own unique things. Please, educate yourself. Dont kill your passion and creativity. When something sparks your interest, read about it. Learn about it. Don't rely on school system and educate the beautiful mind of yours. 💞
I KNOW RIGHT?!??
I guess the creator not from iceland or finland
aregatoooooo!!!!!!!
actual message is child like violin, child make dad happy
Yup, I want to be an animator! I always loved art, my brain kept changing careers I never cared for, but art has always come back to me and I will answer it’s call! 🌺
I love how their names are Copi and paste.
Who is copi and who is paste
@@thrivikraman8059 Copi is the father and Paste is the son. It's in the description.
@@flidethechemist cringe
@@brittanyborders2844 Different strokes for different folks
There names also have a meaning to it too; copi is the one who is a copy of everyone else in his workplace while paste draws things that he experiences with his everyday life
I love the fact that the back pack represents school and how it weighs you down and how the dad hides that it weighs him down
The irony of this is that I am currently doing an assignment I have no motivation to do but am being forced to do it because of expectations, grades, and a promised stable life if I succeed in school. School isn't about learning anymore. It's about passing.
I fully agree.... Humarai daish mai practical knowledge bilkul nhi sirf pass krnai kai liyai padtai hai.... I mean the irony is - People who studied for "passing" a test... Are teaching other children to pass the same test.... Kisi ko yeh nhi pta kya hoga krna sai?!
Yo send me ur home work I’m doing this for school too I need inspiration
Violin Guy:
Parent: FINE I’LL DO IT MYSELF.
Violin Guy: existn't*
AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
I really like how the short didn't really offer a magical solution at the end, like the whole world goes colorful or the dad quits his job or something. Just suggests that there are fun, happy, creative, "colorful" things in life that you have to discover yourself, and not let the rest of the dullness ruin those little things for you. Such a positive, constructive message.

I agree Scleepy
I love how meaningful this is. If there is no creativity then there is no purpose
I started crying at the end. My parents are teachers, and getting the best grades was something what was expected and not even discussed. If the grades become your orientation it is difficult to figure out what you really want. The joy and sense of play are then difficult to find in the grown-up life and you have to go back in time to discover them again.

Never lose your childlike sense of wonder and creativity

This is one of my favorite animations of all time. Treat people as humans, not as robots.
We created a world and a way of living that makes us unhappy, but the necessity of survival,
determines our daily reality..
We are worried about our children's future, while at the same time we destroy it.
😭😭😭😨😨😨😨😰😰😰😓😓😓😨😨😨😫😫😫So much true
For one to see the whole picture, the complete truth behind our lives must not forget that we live in a class divided world
VERY WELL PUT
Anyone else notice that the dad's tie is orange, like his child, and is also the only thing on his character model that never fades in color, reinforcing the idea that he gets his happiness (and therefore "color") from his kid being happy too~?
Man people be talking just about the father and son but like there is ONLY ONE TREE IN THAT PLACE
Lol right
This is the future
That’s because people like to make it seem like the future’s gonna be like that to guilt trip us so they can use it to compensate for any writing mistakes they made. In reality, people are doing _a lot_ to help the Earth and people need to stop crying about how much dAnGer we’re in and actually do something about it and/or contribute to society and not play an air violin while skipping work/school
Los adultos parecemos los docentes cumpliendo con los productos del CTE, Monótonos, aburridos, pareciera que estamos llenando formularios con una muy poca o nula plasticidad del pensamiento, incluso a veces hasta haciendo tiempo para cumplir con un horario, tristemente llegamos a considerar eso normal y hasta bueno si entregamos todos los productos en tiempo y forma (algunos todavía piensan que entre mas se entregue es mejor).
bueno, seguramente es lo que reproducirán nuestros alumnos
Así es Berna, actuamos monotonamente al son de los días... Y si entregamos en tiempo y forma nuestros documentos en las sesiones... 👍🏻

"The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice, it is conformity." - Rollo May
So true.
This really made me cry. The power of visual storytelling.
The message is that work kills creativity. Or School kills creativity.
El problema es que el sistema te recomienda ver este tipo de videos para que reflexionemos y seamos empáticos con nuestros alumnos pero todo el ciclo están pidiendo resultados en lo académico, te exigen que los alumnos logren los aprendizajes esperados y si no lo consiguen o eres un mal maestro o tienes que hacer un plan emergente para rescatar a esos alumnos. Ahí no les importan los intereses de los niños, sus talentos, sus aptitudes. ¡
Es tan contradictorio todo esto!
Es verdad, nosotros como maestros hacemos muchos esfuerzos por que los muchachos aprendan pero la realidad de las cuentas que le piden a uno es muy diferente. Además también ellos imponen las condiciones y si uno se atreve a experimentar estrategias diferentes no siempre lo ven con buenos ojos. El video es muy lindo e ideal pero en nuestra realidad mexicana hay mucha distancia.
ASI ES COMPAÑERA. POR DESGRACIA ES UNA DE TANTAS TANGENTES EN NUESTRO TRABAJO. LAVADO DE CEREBRO, QUE NO NECESITAMOS Y COMO SI NO ENTENDIERAMOS QUE ESTO NO VIENE DE ELLOS, ESTO ES UN CUENTO QUE HA SIDO SOLICITADO POR EL MAESTRO DESDE HACE MUCHO TIEMPO Y AHORA ELLOS SE SIENTEN BIEN RETOMARLO PORQUE SE HA PERDIDO MUCHO DE LO QUE SE LOGRO HACE UN TIEMPO Y NOS VEN COMO LOS CULPABLES DE ESO NO ESTAMOS HACIENDO Y TE ALIENTO PARA QUE RECAPACITES.
No pudiste haberlo dicho mejor, compañera...
concuerdo totalmente
Definitivamente!
For me the short film depicts that let your kids choose what makes them happy. It also shows that it doesn't mean that everybody is doing it you should too. It's okay to be different if that makes you happy. Real happines cannot be equalled by money. Just saying 🤗
Mhei Literal true
The kid won’t know how to spell and use grammar much like how you don’t.
Equalled isn’t used correctly in your comment.
@@connor6054 no one cares lol
To sum up the story -
1. Music makes you alive, keeps you afreshed
2. Follow your heart, your passion
3. Our education system and mentality of parents have to be changed from keeping children only focus on formal education rather let them pursue their passion.
4. The reality of the present World - Work like a hell
5. Keeping your family and valuable relationships happy is the key to your happiness
Overall, an amazing film....!!

This has such a strong message. You must not only think of work but enjoy the little things and take the time for them. The love of the father for his kid was everything, and that was shown as he turned blue at the end of each day when he hugged him. That "little thing" is what made him happy after work. However, when the kid started to turn grey and sad, we could see the father at his downfall and the kid at a depressive state because he couldn't enjoy the music. Also when he started to be sad, it showed how he didn't have any motivation as he couldn't enjoy anything he asked for. His dad couldn't find the balance, until this day where he realised his kid lost his joy, as well known as its yellow color. The green letters symbolised how he was fully motivated, happy, enthusiastic to a handwriting that shows the audience how the kid was tired of thinking of only work. I love this mini animation as it is telling us that we can't only think of work, but we need to find the balance. We can't only have fun, and we can't only think of work. We live in a place where we're surrounded by working industries, but we can definitely take time for ourselves whether you're young or old. We need to find a balance in order to be happy. It is saying that we need to find time for ourselves, even though we need to work. Enjoying little things will simply help to change our ideas, and to have fun. Doesn't mean you are a grow-up that you can't have "free-time" for yourself because everyone deserves a rest during the day. This is what I think they're trying to tell us, and I find it really clever. The change of colors really had an impact on the understanding of this mini film. The power of muted animation is that anybody can understand it their own way, and I love it. It made my day. I wanted to take the time and share this to make people realise how powerful is this short film, it is awesome. Remember: It isn't because you're a grow up with a lot of work that you can't take time for yourself.
This is just a great depiction of what the world has become with the educational system and job economy taking away the natural freedom of creativity and independent thinking that humans crave to be happy and fulfilled. I've observed this even with people in general, how the free rebellious ones end up having the more fulfilled colorful life, and how the Normsters, who've had their natural creativity snatched by society's conventions are left with a routine, lackluster, color-dry life. I was almost one of them too. But we actually seem to be veering off from that direction. People are again waking up or "coloring up" and taking back control.
Lastly, I think the orange character is such a cute kid. Such a funny look.
fadeela ali I absolutely agree! The common core system is crap!
I'm not crying, you are. And it's not of happiness, nor of sadness, but it's because this is beautiful, and I don't know why, but even if I have seen this many times, I still cry, because this is a video that people cry for. They cry because it is beautiful. To the people who made this, you are amazing. Everything about this video is just mesmerising. It also shows a hope. A hope of people being able to change, to escape their routines or their obligations, and get their own mind.
yessss well said!!
@Sawyer Carver i dont like Pewdiepie.
My mom just showed me and I literally started crying like I haven’t in a long time… it’s one of the most beautiful and meaningful things I’ve seen in a while
I love the level of detail they went into making the movie, even making all the people stooped over to show the weight of their bags.
We all know there is something seriously wrong with the way we teach children in school and with how our work is for adults. It’s nice to see it animated in this way.
Really amazing message. We are so deeply slaved to our work-education-life system that we let life pass by without actually living it. We need to break free from these chains and live a truly meaningful life.
find your passion don't follow the crowd
I wish all the best for those who wants to start over in life age is just a number remember that
Dude, get that kid a violin.
I know right?

I'm not sure why this video affects me so much, but I cry like a baby every time I watch it, and I usually don't cry easily!
People who have things they like are colourful and vibrant, don't lose your colours, keep them.
Don’t let school or work stifle your creativity or individuality. A beautiful message, especially in today’s world.
In a soul crushing world joys and creativity are crucial to our lives. What’s the point of meaningless busy work if we don’t also take the time to have some fun and enjoy the things around us.
Un vídeo muy conmovedor, pero desgraciadamente son las mismas autoridades educativas quienes imponen un sistema basado en calificaciones en donde se exigen evidencias de trabajo y se deja de lado otras cualidades que forman parte del desarrollo integral de los alumnos. Por eso depende de cada adulto, docente y padre de familia poner nuestro granito de arena para mantener esa alegría, chispa y capacidad de asombro en los niños.
A si es el mismo sistema educativo lo impone, se contradicen con el mensaje que pretenden dar y con la manera en que educan a los alumnos
Alguien me puede decir los nombres de los personajes por favor
Cierto nuestro sistema de educación es obsoleto.
I'm literally crying when seeing this video....In India you cannot imagine how they give importance to unnecessary memory education....very less people talk about creativity....
Yes man it's true we student study study study for some numbers 😭😭😭it's a jungle bro eat or get eaten
@@sourabhshahi4521 yes bro it's bitter truth of Indian education system....
You need "unnecessary memory education" to become smarter and to actually help the society improve. Without education, you wouldn't be able to get a good job. Without education, humans aren't able to improve in their lives. Without education, you wouldn't be able to comprehend and understand creativity. There are so many reasons why education is important, and if you can't get a grip on that, go back to school.
Also, seems like you need to learn how to use punctuation.
@@rickrolled8737 if you want to be a talking puppet...best of luck....and about my punctuation... brother I am from India my language is Hindi and also Marathi both English isn't my preferred language so plz....and also I am not against education....but give that education which world need today not centuries year old puppet Education.....
And also Sorry If If my words makes you feel bad....Namaste🙏
@@rickrolled8737 I think what he means is their education system is treating him and his fellow students are being subjected to some sort of experimental learning process that they're taking a little to far in hopes to get some sort of positive result out of. A lot of school systems all over the world try to push a learning system onto their masses of students that make work for one individual and not for the rest. No one wants to treat Student:A ,Student:B, and Student:C as individuals and learn how said Student:A may processes given information differently from their piers. If Student: B and Student: C respond positively to a certain method of teaching while Student:A struggles, they deem this an overall success while student Student A is left behind. This is the result of a underfunded, understaffed, and overall, bloated school system.
I think the moral of the story was don’t overwork yourself find something that makes your day worthwhile and let your child find their passion. 😊

tambien! pero el video es hermoso
Yo
when you don't have time for an hour long movie so you spend two hours watching short animation films
I just realized that everyone in the film is right handed except for the father and the son. I love this short so much
The way you showed your belief and thought in this video... amazing. The scene of the black and white city with only one small part of color and life... the load of daily life.... orange and blue color of L and I.... everything was so impressive. Lack of happiness in this world! Important point! The fight between being different and being indifferent
I watched this to help my grandson with his homework. It brought a tear to my eye.. With the pandemic affecting so many children and knocking out their creativity, and draining the colour from their lives, this short film reminds us about whats important.
What I learned? Prioritizing finding a balance. Orange didn't mind classes as long as they had fun with it. I mean, there's even that very popular saying that All Work and No Play Makes you dull
I love this. All of his happiness comes from his kid and the dad lets go of his normal routine to make sure his kid is still happy, even if the kid's dreams aren't familiar.
The movie is great. False beliefs and distorted perceptions of the good life result in unhappy and lost people who are easily manipulated. This movie should be watched by every parent.
Moral of the story, be the parent you need to be and let your child grow. Don't keep forcing them to astray from their happiness and interests. Be who you wanna be instead of making a false person.
Exactamente eso sucede con la carga administrativa que la SEP nos pide y los contenidos obsoletos que aun están en los libros, la evaluación y la exigencia para con los alumnos, necesitamos una revisión seria y urgente de todo esto.
Si no lo hacen es porque realmente no importa, la educación pende de un hilo administrado por la OCDE, del FMI, del BM, o la agenda 2030. Es crear trabajadores bajo un mismo sistema, no de gozar las libertades como quisiéramos. Y por ese mismo camino van todos. Imagina que en México cada sexenio es una nueva pseudo reforma educativa trayendo más de lo mismo. Nunca dejamos que un sistema interno tenga más años de estudio y de aplicación. Pero bueno, tenemos que conformarnos.
This really touched me. It's not a novel story by any means, to be non-conformist in a society that demands so much. To encourage creativity and difference, it's found in a lot of stories... But I think the way that message was conveyed.. That was beautiful. Only a couple of words (school and work) but an extremely big message. Everything about the short was wonderful and I had a great time watching.
Actually made me cry, haha. Tho it's really late so I could be over-reacting just a little. But I know for a fact that my appreciation for the story itself and how it was told isn't me being dramatic. This is definitely an authentically good little short film. I hope ya'll are proud for making it.

what this video is implying, that all human beings are stripped of their creativity and curiosity early on in life because they're put down by ones higher up in the ladder of life than them, this is such an important message to spread, because so many people have lived and died, not following their dreams because they were ruthlessly crushed down at an early age. and i feel worried that if i became a father or teacher or any other kind of figure a child looks up to, i'm worried i'll make that mistake.
Doggo Drapy don’t be worried that’s y lots of people do whatever they can to experience and enjoy life man just bc we aren’t promised a tomorrow doesn’t mean we can’t be cooped up in a house all bored and sad enjoy life and be free
Unfortunately, noone can escape the rat race... modern civilisation is ruthless
@@damirapevec6203 Yes, I agree. It is all too true.
Damn, this reminds me of that quote from Dead Poets Society which went something like,
“Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.”
Man this short needs to pick one meaningful and deep message, they've got how some parents entire life revolves around their children and if their child becomes unhappy they basically break, and how the education pushes out any emotions, opinions, or personality a child might have just to force feed them the same useless information to them every day, or how people would rather be normal then happy. Im probably over thinking this arent I
How I wish all parents are the first person to support and acknowledge the good in every kids life and not the first one to discourage them.
Moral - don't stifle your child's creativity and love of life if you want to survive yourself. But I do love that this one parent cared more about his kid than what others thought. :)
i love getting here along with the rest of the people who’ve just been given this gift just a bit late by youtube, here we go again squad

Haha y e s
Notice how the color changes from being vibrant into pale. May we find our genuine happiness.
I dropped out of my med school to become an artist.
I did get criticized for my decision at lot, which kinda made em depressed.
But when I look back now. I'm happy I did that.
It’s sad that creativity is never appreciated and understood, we need creativity so that it helps us to enjoy life. My philosophy is creativity is a child’s development tool.
sometimes you just can't change the world. All you can really change, is you. And that's what matters the most.
being young is a true gift; a chance you have to change you and those in your future
KP Smith - Morning Advisory watched this film and said, "This short had a great message. Thoroughly relatable which teaches a lesson about living life to the fullest. I was surprised that all the characters seemed male. We enjoyed seeing how the parent feels and joy that grows within from the love of their child."
After so many years I still cried so hard every time i watch
okay, sad and all, but is anybody going to comment about how skilled the kid is at drawing? Seriously.
Honestly, the saddest part is that the individual playing the violin gave into the depiction of this similar society
Im curious why you think this. Is it just because he left that gives you this implication?
@@2Meows he probably woke up late 😂
Es bueno que los niños estudien pero aveces los padres exigen tanto que no se dan cuenta que la felicidad de un niño es la que le da las ganas de salir adelante, siempre es bueno pasar un buen rato con ellos y no quitarles la alegría de soñar en grande.

I like how the title can have so many different meanings to it. It can represent how similar everyone in the city is to one another, but it also shows how similar the father is to his child. I've noticed that the film focuses of the relationship of the two characters instead of the world around them. A good example is when the two are having deep moments together, the world fades away, leaving only the two of them to be seen by the viewer. Great film super cute story.
Don't hide your true colour. Let it shine and be unique. Don't listen to others just be who you are.
If he didn’t listen to others he would fail school
So I'm not the only one who was recommended this video.
started crying very suddenly about 4 minutes in. anyone else notice that the kid's arms look like wings? so when he willingly holds them up for the backpack, it's the equivalent of a bird deliberately flying itself into a cage
vivimos una vida tan mecanizada que nos olvidamos de las cosas que verdaderamente importan . El trabajo nos absorbe de tal manera que vamos dejando de lado nuestra parte mas tierna, la sensibilidad, las ganas de vivir. Perdemos el contacto cercano con nuestros hijos, les exigimos que sean buenos estudiantes pero no estamos atentos a lo que verdaderamente nos quieren expresar. Nos convertimos en una especie de robots donde trabajamos y producimos pero no sabemos a donde vamos. Al final del corto el hombre decide salirse del circulo vicioso y elije vivir la vida como se merece, con arte y con amor.
Gracias por la gran reflexión 😊✨

No es tan sencillo, ni siquiera factible... eso de ser empático ya es risible. Ya quisiera ver que la SEP, realmente aplicara esto con nosotros los docentes, sin embargo, ahí tienen que esto, que lo otro y que aquello. Los vídeos y las palabras son archivos muertos; la realidad es que la reuniones del CTE no tiene un sentido práctico.
Asi es lamentablemente asi es
This really hits me because it reminds me of my dad and me when I was a little kid, he always fought to make me smile, he never failed.
This isn't trying to say "school is awful, drop out".The message of the film is that you have to find time to do something creative, something that makes you happy, not what society thinks is best for you.
I love this. At my daughters school they started using a method called "exploring writing" They went on some school trip (close by or a bus trip away), the next day they made some art about what they had seen, and THEN they would write. With the letters the knew or just doodles. Learning to write through the force of having something to say was super effective (Y)
Literally I surprised by the name of the characters: Copy: copiar, Paste: Pegar, but the short is really beautiful
What I found most interesting about this story is how long it took for the child to forget his true identity and how quickly he remembered it. That's really how I think it works. We resist with all our strength the message from culture that we are somehow less than beautiful, wise, loving, creative and infinite. Eventually, most of us succumb to the endless onslaught. We forget. But not really. It is impossible for the flame of Who We Really Are to ever go out entirely. And sometimes all it takes is the gentlest of reminders for us to see the truth. I see it every day with my clients. A new light in their eyes. A spark of recognition. A hidden emotion rising up in them in response to a brief moment of clarity.
I don't need to add anything to this system. The best (and only) service that I offer as a Transformative Coach is to point. I simply do my best to point them in the direction of their already present wholeness, peace, clarity and happiness. Not because I always know the way there, but because I trust that they will know it when they really see it.
To some this may not seem like much of a service. Where are the goals? Where's the motivation and rah rah rah? Where's the advice and instructions and strategy?
I'm not questioning that those things may have their place. But my experience with myself and my clients is that they just aren't as necessary when we remember Who We Really Are.
It's an odd service to offer, this pointing. But I love it. And my client's lives are changing.
So many messages in our world are designed make us forget Who We Really Are. I'm glad that it's my job to help us remember.

Same here. Tears everywhere.
it works then.

this hits really hard for me because I relate to this, my parents both used me to light up there world and not care how I feel. right now I'm a bland grey trying to find my burst of color again, my rainbow of happiness
I couldn’t help but notice how as the child loses his fun his yellow shade fades a little
Yeah it's almost like what the animation is about or something
I am in tears. I saw myself in the kid, and going through the last year of high school right now, it's more relatable than ever. I have my math homework right in front of me that I've been physically struggling to get started with for hours, while yesterday I sat for 9 and a half hours straight in front of the computer and edited a seven minute teaser video of my friend's wedding without feeling remotely as tired. School does kill creativity for the sake of obsolete and trivial knowledge, and for that reason, sadly, I can't wait to get out of it. 2 more months.
michaeltrex there is this theory of how the cuckoo bird is a symbol of a con artist who takes the koel bird’s nest knocking out some the eggs and laying it’s own. When the cuckoo bird leaves and the koel returns the chicks don’t know they are being cheated. Being the fed the wrong knowledge and following the indoctrination kills creativity and leads to unhappiness
michaeltrex I hope you feel less drained of creativity now :)
I'm glad you still have a passion for something. I lost it in public school. I've raised seven children of my own and each of them has some type of passion. My youngest two I am homeschooling and I hope they always have a love of learning and never become like everyone else. Get through it and follow a path of learning you love. We can't all work our passions, we do have to earn money, but we can live life with passion. There is beauty in the world, be a part of that.

I'm going through the same. Just finished 2 years in engineering. I started making photos and videos a year ago. I can sit for days editing videos and not having thoughts of leaving it till I finished. But I can't focus on maths, i used to be a bright kid in high school but as time goes on the arts keeping drawing me closer. I shot my first short film in May and I'm writing my second.
Ima give this one ALike
Llore, es muy hermoso. me fascino así debería de ser la vida de uno, no apagar nuestro color y brillo por lo rutinario. el amor de padre e hijo, y ver por la felicidad de tu hijo, tiene que ser lo mas importante y lo mas bonito.
I don't understand why 2.2k people disliked this amazing masterpiece....
Sawyer Carver pffff
maybe the message of this video is not to quit school its to repair the education system and make better and more fun ..
life is not just live and work and die
I agree !
I agree !
yup
The message of the film is that the creator is a dumbfuck who thinks poetry, literature, art, music theory, math, history, and science, are all just repetitive busy work with no meaning or value.
