Experiencing Interruptions?

Party

One day, a virus appeared that infected everyone around me. The virus is a dance caused by a very addictive song.
Among people who are into dance, I discovered something new. Not only people but all living animals and plants dance to that song. Although I make an effort to be registered and visible in this exciting world, I am an actively created person. To me, it's all about making sure your special ears don't bunch up and the song doesn't move.
I try hard to heal the people who make me feel lonely, but I can't deal with them, and the only thing I can't do is blame them. I discovered the existence of the Action Group, but I couldn't deny it, so I calmly accepted the whole situation, accepted it, and tried not to have any expectations.

Director Statement

There was a time when I was isolated in loneliness under the illusion that everyone in the world except me was leading a happy life. However, after the dark times passed, I was able to face moments of happiness that I had not seen at the time. It's not that I wasn't happy, it was that I was missing out on happiness because I didn't have the space of mind to enjoy it. The short animation <Party> depicts my isolated teenage years. It was produced by projection. I hope that this work will bring a little joy in the cold to those who are having a winter of their hearts, and that it will give them the courage to hold their own party, even if it is simple.
Let’s party time!
