      1:04 Сначала выходит ложное мнение, что мальчик жестокий, лиж бы поиграть в компьютерные тигры. И в этот момент также я думал: "Если он делал уроки, то должен был не бросать щенка, а плавно поставить и сказать: "Сейчас я сделаю уроки и пойдём погуляем".
      Но потом понятно, что у собаки нет левой передней лапы.

      Yeah, I'm 30 seconds in and all I can think is if that were my boy and I saw that we'd be packing up the gamebox and all of the games and taking them down to a foster home or homeless shelter for HIM to donate and it would be the last bit of electronics he ever had. He'd be spending his now free time volunteering at the animal shelter until he was old enough to move out. Im seriously getting pissed off watching a cartoon. Lol

    I love this when the boy and dog go outside to play which was so sweet 🥹.
    The only reason why the boy didn’t love the doggy that his mom got for him is when he saw that the dog had no leg he too didn’t have a leg also 1:03 1:06 .
    I think he felt embarrassed 😳 that his mom got him a dog with no leg the same that he lost a leg.
    Like if he took the dog for a walk people will start laughing at them both that they have no legs.
    But then he realize it doesn’t matter what they say all he cares is having fun with the dog.

    Both of them are handicapped it's a perfect match.. we gave a kitten that was blind in one eye.. to a little girl that was handicapped missing half of her left arm.. she just turned 10.. the kitten follows her around like a dog.. the little girl would be about 13 right now.. not too sure about the cat

    • @blacky_Ninja
      @blacky_Ninja Год назад +4

      No, the moral is rather that animals can teach us to accept and adapt to our current Situation if we‘re not able to do that on our own.
      The boy didn‘t really hate the dog itself, he just projected his negative feelings for his own condition onto the little gal.

    When did you realize that the boy was missing his left leg? Was it when he stood up at the end? Or was it when he kicked the ball into the box for the pup? If you look closely around 1:46-1:47, you can see a brief shot of his leg, and you can see it’s missing before he even gets up on his crutches 😊

    Title: "The Present"
    Introduction:
    In the short film "The Present," the narrative unfolds around a boy captivated by video games, whose world suddenly shifts when his mother introduces an unexpected surprise. This surprise challenges his digital preoccupation, inviting him to explore the world beyond screens. This analysis aims to delve into the film's thematic exploration of technology's grip on modern lives and the invitation it extends to rediscover the joys of the present moment and human connection.
    Body:
    Plot and Character Dynamics:
    The film revolves around the boy's fixation on video games, portraying his disinterest in the outside world. His mother's surprise gift disrupts this routine, prompting a shift in his attention and emotions. The juxtaposition of his initial reluctance and eventual engagement with the gift serves as a poignant narrative arc, symbolizing the clash between technological immersion and real-life experiences.
    Cinematography and Sound Design:
    The cinematography employs contrasting visual elements to delineate the boy's indoor gaming world from the vibrant outdoor setting. The use of lighting and color palettes highlights the stark difference between the two realms, emphasizing the transition from the dimly lit, artificial ambiance of the boy's room to the vivid, natural light outdoors. Sound design amplifies this transition, with the audio shifting from the confined, digital soundscape to the lively, immersive sounds of nature.
    Symbolism of the Gift:
    The unexpected present symbolizes more than a mere object; it embodies an opportunity for the boy to embrace the present moment and human interaction. It serves as a metaphorical bridge between his virtual reality and the tangible world, inviting him to break away from the digital confines and engage with the wonders of reality.
    Conclusion:
    "The Present" encapsulates a powerful message about the enticement of technology and the importance of embracing the present moment. Through its adept storytelling, cinematography, sound design, and symbolic elements, the film delivers a compelling narrative that urges viewers to reconsider the balance between digital immersion and genuine human experiences.
