I have a theory. Remember all those "monsters" from various myths and legends? What if they were peaceful and only looked scary to frighten humans away. They very well might've been guardians of forests, animals, etc...
Eppure gli esseri umani vedono ancora cattivi coloro che non rientrano in certi canoni estetici e buoni quelli che invece vi rientrano storia vecchia.... Bell'insegnamento certo, questa storia fa riflettere.....
Not all big, scary things are harmful. Not all little sweet things are harmless. Intent. Motive. Focus. Desire. Love and Hate. Those are what makes up the individual, not a face, body, skin or bones.
I wish he hadn't shot the magical creature, he meant him no harm...but he figured that out too late. I like that both characters defy identification as any one animal. They are a mix of sorts. Perhaps we all fear things that are different from us.
That creature were their to ease him, that shinning marks were their gaving out by somebody than convert to him, which gave ability to anyone to finished unwanted plants where it grew.
Of course, the creature met harm otherwise he wouldn’t have shot. The animal wasn’t menacing him at all. Just like human beings shoot first ask questions later.
A good idea. But it requires more work on the details. The farmer kills the Keeper and immediately begins to feel sorry for him. Too fast. What changed his mind? A second ago, he was sure he was right. The moment of realizing the mistake (where the leaf and the forest fall) and remorse would be more correct to transfer to the time between the shot and touching the Keeper. Then the Farmer's regret will be more understandable. He understands that his selfishness has led to a catastrophe. Regret makes him touch the Keeper. And a touch gives knowledge of how he can atone for a mistake.
Yes also taking their power n using it to gain credits for their own benefits n have profits out of it showing no mercy that's deprivation of humanity.....
That’s it . . .see something beautiful and magical and shoot it. Wish I had such a creature in my forest. It reminded me of the Lord of the Wood, the forest’s soul.
Very well done. Thought provoking, simple yet insightful, and contemplative. Kudos! A part two would be well received. Thank you for sharing. All the best.
Big Foot Not exist Its only for Merchandising T-Shirts and other Stuff 🤑 This is the same with Loch ness Photos from Bigfoot, Lochness and the others are Fake
I don't get it. The main character is frustrated because he (I'm guessing a he), is struggling keeping his garden cut back because every morning after doing so, it's overgrown again. He discovers there's a creature that everything he (guessing another he) touches sprouts vapid growths. So the first guy shoots him, then runs over and touches him, I'm guessing he has remorse over popping him? That's not clear, but he touches him and gains the power he killed the first one over having. I get the frustration, but it's also kind of brutal and not clear how he feels, or why this is an issue for him in the end, other than he'll never get his garden cut back. There are a lot of things I like about this film, but I don't get it or the message, but I'd like to
@@YoungDymisty I didn't answer anything. I brought up things it might be, that I have to stop and question if that's what it's supposed to be or not, instead of getting caught up in and enjoying the story. And the things I brought up, I also meant as if that's what it is, it doesn't make sense. And if you look at other comments on here, some say it's one thing, and others another. So it doesn't look like many get it.
@@GD-2.00 it is a video... It is everyone's perspective. Killing is done with perspective. Death has no specific time frame. Who can define what "due time is" . I don't believe the killer understood that he was shooting at a God. The God did not die, the creature was transformed by the God. In life, perspective is everything. I don't believe we have the proper perspective for very much anymore. If you need to eat, & you have raised the vegetable or animal well, killing to feed your family is acceptable, as the circle of life 🧡🧡
Can someone please tell me what kind of animal person living in the house is and was the Mystical Creature trying to prevent Fall by making the leaves grow again since they were falling and drying up which is normal for the season? Please explain?!
1. I have no idea, it was probably some kind of original creature made by the creator. 2. I think they were the embodiment of growth, life, and nature, so when they died it represented fall, since that's when things start to die.
I did not understand what it was trying to say. The plants kept becoming overgrown. Then they were gone and the wendigo-looking animal was walking away. Why did the bear shoot it? What was transferred at the end?
Maybe I'd complain about my current job. And now it looks like I've even gotten a perfect and restless one with no vacation packages growing all of the endless forest I killed in just 1 second all year round. D'amn me
Wait! The brown creature was mad about all the raking he had to do and when he sees who is behind it he runs to kill it . And only after killing it he thinks about what he has done snd feels remorse it appears and then decided to take over the dead creatures identity, purpose whatever ?! And that makes him feel ok about what hes done? Nevermind the fact that he hated the leaves and stuff he felt he had to rake . Its all good now?! Whatever happened to just good old knocking the crap out of wilE coyote? Or Yosemite Sam? Or Marvin the Martian? No thinking involved just animated comedy. Splat!!!
The act of apologizing will not undo a mistake. We must think before the trigger is pulled let alone grabbing a gun. Why plant a garden then cut away the fruit? The home owner would exist with less suffering in a city.
