@@user-tl6qx5bg5ysory but i dont understand enything at all,can you translate it on englisch ?

@@piotrlatuszek171 It's just the same sentence repeated over and over again. "Allah (God) pray for Mohammad and the family of Mohammad." Don't know what that got to do with the video though.

And here am I, exceptionally average.

@@TwistedFireX What about it?

koscheis i have seen it, the situation is so dire! And to escape it you need money and the willingness to abandon the place you grew up in, which many people cant afford. Its a vicious cycle.

As a Hongkonger I relate to this comment so much, the prices of rent here are CRAZY, I love Hong Kong but I agree that our society is very capitalist.

@@miniko_artsy Oh cmon. Its not about capitalism. I grew up in USSR (now its Ukrain) and my flat was not much better than what u see in this movie.

Okay that makes sense (with the coffin apartment) I thought it was an actual coffin. My mistake 😔

@@shadowproxy331 Wdym

ya the ending was really well done. felt that in my gut

I feel that way to be honest

Oh, I thought it was more like the character's experience is insignificant when you look at their building/house from a distance, and see other buildings that have many other humans living inside them.

I thought the ending was to show how after he finally starting getting some sleep, it's just then became morning. *N* *I* *C* *E* .... 🙃🙃🙃

what are you doing with it?

@@infoninja i dunno about you guys but I'm watching cartoons

You enjoy it. No need to feel shame with what life gave you. Just appreciate it more, i guess.

@@MefilioDeAggelo that's not a world i'm happy with. i shouldn't spend money to ignore it, and yet...

I know right, this somehow made me realize how lucky i am to not live with roomates. A really cool feat for them to make with an animation

too many people on the planet doing bad things and being greedy. That is what causes this situation. Stop the self centeredness

We should live in a bit bigger places but with a more humble life style. Reflecting on this, i should buy less material products.

I'm 15, I'll try my best. Maybe one day everything will tip to balance.

That's capitalism. It's fueled on competition, and there will always be a loser. Fundamentally, this economic system forfeits the idea of having an equal class structure, and as participants we've accepted that. Don't hate the player hate the game.

In third world countries such as mine, thats the reallity. Our countries are poor so the first world can enjoy and waste. Capitalists can only lie and rob

Well yeah, but in which country do you live in?

City life fucking sucks bro who the hell can stand living in the city?

@@coffintears5821 As long as the weather i's not freakin' cold, the village is at least semi-civilized, there are some good job opportunities and there are some young people as well, not just old grannies waiting to die, then fine - why not, I'd love to live in a small village, but if you check most of the villages in Eastern Europe... Man, it's a sad story an no place for a young lad seeking for prosperity

I live in an area that has some forest and farmland. It’s relatively quiet here and I do enjoy it a lot.

Cities are for commerce, small towns are for comfort. Glad you're in a better spot now.

And yet, many, many people are forced to live in these boxes. Mostly in big cities in Asia, a huge number of poor people have to rent tiny cabinet beds to live in. And if you end up getting a box that's next to someone you don't like, you have to deal with them. You can't even pick who your roommates are.

It’s insane

@@ramz16k As one of the directorson this project, I approve of what you said, that's one the reason why we wanted to make this film :)

I have ADHD. I don't think I really have to go into detail on how this would affect my lifestyle.

@@paparoniehuang6876 Thank you for this animation! Even without any speaking the imagery is very moving. The sinking ship hitting the character in the face was profound

Very bittersweet too as it looks like our protagonist barely passed out before sunrise

Exactly! Lmao they captured it so well

Yeah I do this all the time ... I relate 😅

@@phenixloisel3650 do what? want to relax but end up stressing yourself ? or doing the appreciation of some good art? idk

@@papasscooperiaworker3649 welcome city morning when I should really sleep.

hahahaha

Film doesn't have to have a moral. Sometimes it's just to elucidate. This is real life, as ugIy as it is, but we need to see this. Everyone should see this.

I feel like everyone is struggling in the room , it just just shown from his perspective. None of them are happy.

What?! Holograms that come from the TV, missive toiler waves and big dudes who can cause hurricane level wind by breathing are all real?? Damn, guessed I missed the point of the film then :(

@marcu pray tell.

@@Nerf_Jeez If you are being satire, sorry for being stupid, but I was trying to say it makes me sad people have to live in dense places like this.

I interpreted the title more as having to do with the lack of life of the protagonist. He clearly is in a dead end, just subsisting through his job, crashing on his bed trying to sleep directly. With nightmarish work hours, a complete lack of private life, no peace of mind and nothing that seems to be truly his, this place is indeed a coffin, with not a semblance of life to be found.

Blizaros Very true, I could easily see that being the meaning of the title as well. Though the main focus of the animation seems to be the struggle of the protagonist trying to sleep, which I was linking back to the phrase “rest in peace” associated with death and coffins. And yet there were several elements just in that room alone preventing him was gaining said rest. Granted, the dude probably does have poor work hours.

It’s a coffin apartment. They sell these to people who can’t afford the average apartment in Asian cities where space is priced at an all time premium due to scarcity, eg Hong Kong, Singapore. You rent a space that is literally the size of a coffin and share a room that has the max amount of coffin apartments crammed into it. They also all share a common bathroom and kitchen. Google it, it’s sad. They have families living in coffin apartments in Hong Kong.

@@Blizaros nope, its about living in a coffin apartment

@@gianinnakarla I think it is just about both.

Unfortunately, this is how the mid and below wage people are in HK. Look up Coffin Houses. Then you'd wonder why PRC keeps building ghost towns that will never be lived in while they subjugate others and force them to such horrid conditions

No kitchens. they gotta eat out. so claustrophobic..

@@hopewhore there are versions of it that have kitchens in them. And too painful, too

@@redlady120 oh jeez. ouch. how do they even do that?

@@hopewhore I don't know... I saw a news once abt this office building that got converted into a coffin house. Several families live in one restroom and one of the cubicles was converted into a common kitchen 😢

Eyyyyy

Yay.

I love youuuuu!

Normally I’m not someone to enjoy films like this, but this one really resonates with me. I really liked the subtle details with the various clips before the entire room floods, especially the boiling frog.

Oh oh tu parles donc français, c'est cool !

Same I have to turn on two fans and put a weighted blanket to my head to block out noise, even though it's quiet for the most part :/

Sad, I hope I could help with something but I can't. I'm sorry for your struggle. Made me appreciate my sleep

@@zalamazu i used to do that living in my old apartment now i dont have to do that anymore now that i live in the country side People would use to run their cars at night near the sidewalk in front of my apartment for no god damn reason and since the walls were thin i would hear their engines running and it would keep me up at night. So i had a fan running to buzz out the noise and i would put in my headphones and listen to some music

My ass could not get any sound sleep since the quarantine started but then I purchased generic silicone ear plugs (the ones that you press against the ear and they mold to your ear drum, blocking sound), and that's the story of how my flatmate's life was saved from getting mauled.

I have OCD and I had to turn on my fan and radio static before I went to bed otherwise my families voices would (literally) drive me crazy. I wanted to jump out of bed and scream at them, but my OCD told me I couldn't talk to them when they were bothering me. Thankfully I'm a lot better now.

im so proud

Those arent beds they are apartments

absolutely! what can make or break a good story scene are the tiny details...or lack thereof

you know we can see the making off on RU-vid by the youtuber that gray cartoon pony

Exactly! I was just gonna write this, haha. The animation style is amazing, very nostalgic for me, but I’m loving the aesthetics of the details. A full-length short or even feature film like this would be so great to watch.

Were you with them or were you the one trying to get some sleep ?

@@skanda2186 trying to sleep :| its cool they apologised this morning

yeah holly cow this is good art work

Going to the mainland might not be an option for most of them. It's a matter of unemployment artificially runned by the capitalists to exploit workers to the utmost limit. We, workers all around the world, need to fight for Socialism.

@@Nalojuntu Socialism you kidding? That brings the exact same problems. Almost every country in the world has a mixed economy because having only socialism or capitalism is bound to fail. I guess increasing the socialism is what you mean though.

@@letsgetfluffy3138 At the core of capitalism, there is the accumulation of value and ownership (capital). So, mecanically, any part of capitalism you keep in an economy allows it to rebuild itself : re-accumulate value, which allows it to re-accumulate political power, which it will use to free itself from any social progress to instead exploit workers at the utmost it can. And repeat a cycle of crisis - overproduction, unemployment, powerty, imperialism, wars, racism and sexism to divide workers and lower their salary, etc.

@@Nalojuntu No Capitalism in an economy means no free market, no?

I've just learned about it and looked it up. It appears to be even worse than this

@@clumsiii it's really a sad life 😔💔

What is the song? I've been looking everywhere and can't find it!!

@@delaney7137 i have no idea too jus thought it sounded great

Yes, people suck, but sometimes (especially with evictionacolypse) a roommate is necessary. Grow and learn patience, communication.

To be more specific: people who are oblivious to the plight of ALL human beings with no empathy or compassion to show even the slightest respect suck.

Roommates don't suck. Multinational corporations who steal everything from people and countries and then force them to live in boxes that are 3 cubic meters small actually suck.

I relate so bad, good luck ;_;

I've only seen Paprika, but I see what you mean. Sudden shifts in environment and space

considering that Hong Kong/Macau has a very small area of land it is unfortunate that buildings cramp the smallest rooms possible to save space.

Get out of cities, buy local from your communities and fellow neighbors, create or work in ways that support and contribute to your local community and you won’t have to live like this. Capitalism is a two way street. Socialism is this reality with no choice whatsoever, your government gets to choose everything, what housing, how big, where, how many people. Think of your government like a company, what happens when a company gets a monopoly? They gut the everything in their market and use the cheapest practices possible because they have no competition or reason to do otherwise (besides morals, but come on now, this is a company). So a government with a monopoly on everything from food, to housing, to wages etc would gut everything, to the biggest bang for their buck. People often think a big government will fix the issues with Capitalism, but it just gives the government the power to become the big bad company that ruins lives. Capitalism atleast gives you a choice by what you choose to buy and spend money on, competition between stores keeps prices low (what customers want) and if they want quality and ethical practices they will buy from brands who have quality and ethical practices. A big government would just laugh and give you your generic brand shoes made by child slaves in third world countries, because you have no choice not to, it’s your government and who rules you.

@@ayla5094 You sound insane.

@@mmmhmmm8236 Actually, there's been research done on this and this doesn't have to happen (specifically in Hong Kong). Straight up corporate greed is the cause.

@@OkamiRose What’s insane about it to you? That a company and a government are one and the same?

*Gmod intensifies*

Mmmmm tf2

i think they added the Manila poster to emphasize that immigrants experience living in coffin houses too.

Basically all the noise in the apartment is over exaggerated. Football on radio = actual game is in the apartment, truck drives by outside = crashes into the place and so on

Sadly, This is what really happens in Hong Kong. Check out this episode about cage home by vox ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hLrFyjGZ9NU.html

@@goodbanter4427 and I think he drowned out all that noise thru alcohol? Not sure

What is Insomnia? 😕

@@esahcaeeneiradgbo2464 Insomnia is something where either a person has a difficult time going to sleep and/or (such as myself) have difficulties staying asleep.

@@NightFoxProductions Thank you for giving me that information. Now I understand what you said when you understood the animated short. ☺

Cut the f*ckin' coffee, right off the bat, no caffeine! Then start training - lifting weights, cardio, get your body moving and get tired! Insomnia will go away

@@emilpashov1993 thanks for the tip, but deep inside I already know what I have to do. Thing is, I have a bone problem and can't practice sport, but I'm undergoing a treatment and I should feel better within a few months. You bet I'll work myself out to exhaustion as soon as I'm able, but until then I have to deal with these sleepless nights

Madhuri G i think youre correct

hey, may i know the name of the documentary?
