A finalist on the Genero.tv website - "The Alcoholic" is a video set to the tune of a Royksopp song with the same name. Here we follow a man who finds himself a puppet to alcoholism. Intended to have the look of a comedy and the feel of a tragedy - this video juxtaposes the two with a combination of puppetry and live action. Think "Avenue Q" meets "Requiem for A Dream" From Royksopp's "Senior" Album

As an alcoholic,who has been there, been through 2 wives,lost the love of people I loved, lost jobs, and damn near killed myself through accidents and on purpose, this really hits home. Although I have not had a drink in 18 years now I still know how easy it is to lose everything. It's always good to have a reminder of " The good old days.☠️😭" Just the thought scares me. Thanks for posting.

Oh no! Yes I am a senior but I know that if I were to have one drink anything could happen. I cannot take that chance. I don't begrudge others who choose to drink, I believe every adult is usually able to make a decision of their own. For me it's to never have another drink. We have a singer in Canada who has a great hit song back in the day called" Go for a Soda" His name is Kim Mitchell. Hey,I know that you mean well.👌

My partner stopped and has finally been able to deal with all their problems as a result, they are so much more comfortable in their own skin. Happier? Sometimes, at least they can feel things now, they are more resilient all the time though. I have a beer a week maybe, but it's different for everyone. Some people kill themselves with food, others with work. What's your sobriety look like, AA is a stepping stone, but some people even get addicted to that (of course there are much worse addictions). My Mother's sobriety includes zoloft, a friend's sobriety includes grass, another friend is more addicted than anyone and is straight-edge. We all need to care about each other a bit more. We all need healthier relationships with everything.

FINALIST ? REALLY ? ! This video is way better than the one that won. Conceptually this guy (Muppet) clearly has a drinking problem, even his girl wants him to get help (the card). This video is so convincing, hell, I wanted to help the poor little blue Muppet. Towards the end, when he starts to get the shakes, my eyes began to water. Then when he turns the card over and reads, "please get help", I started to cry. It showed me that even with his problem, his girl really cares about him. :'(

I really think this should have won! It's wonderfully shot, and the metaphor of the 'puppet' is timely!

Exactly achillis, the goal of this film was to try and convey emotion through setting and reactions of the actors (b/c you're right, the expression on the puppet does not actually change)

Whenever I feel like my struggles in life are bringing me to go back to drinking I watch and listen to this. It reminds me times where I took consciousness of this problem and this song and video actually made me feel better. It is like it has captured the exact feeling of alcoholism, without a word, and somehow gives hope. It is like being understood somehow. As said in other comment, it is something very peculiar that this song seems to have that power of empathy, while it is not actually a "song".

The true sad part is we understand addiction so little and programs like AA, do help many, yet have a superficial success rate.I don't think there will ever be a pill cure either. Today (2017) ya just hope anyone at this station in life finds a point where they want to stop and its before life and love are lost.

I'm currently home for the weekend from the hospital. 3 months clean from 12 years on Buprenorphine (6 weeks clean from Kratom) and about 2 weeks from Ritalin. Bought 12 beers when I got home, drank the last 4 this morning. This video (plus a migraine) stopped me from buying more.
