Invention of Love- Animated Short Film

 

I came across this animated short film accidently, but I am glad I found it. It's done in a really cool silhouette- style. It was written and directed by Andrey Shushkov. It is called Invention of Love.

 

 

 

 

This film really made me think about what it's trying to tell. It reminded me of the Industrial Revolution and how people forgot completely about nature but rather thought about inventing more machines to help mass production to get more money, but they completely forgot about the safety of the employees that worked in those factories.

 

 

The man in the story seems to be an inventor and is so concentrated on the machines that he doesn't even notice that his wife is suffocating in this environment.

 

The short film could also mean that because of all the machines and advanced technology now days people seem to forget the most important things which is to value life and love.

 

The wilting flower at the end looks a bit like the flower used in the Disney movie The Beauty and the Beast. The wilting flower could represent the nature that's forgotten about or humans who have suffered due to machines taking their jobs.

 

I love the part at the start where the man makes the horse give the flower to the lady.
