- The box is full of miserable creatures -- but one of them doesn't belong there.
THE BOX is used with permission from Dusan Kastelic. Learn more at bugbrain.com.
In a strange, dark box lives a group of box-headed elderly humanoid creatures with roots instead of legs. Most of these creatures are sunken into a catatonic sleep, unaware of anything outside their hermetic, sealed-off world.
But one of them emerges from the crowd, stunned into consciousness. Young and growing, the creature starts to cause a joyful ruckus, but struggles against the disapproval and rancor of the rest of his box-dwellers. But then the youngster begins to fight back, looking for a way outside the box but coming against its most oppressive forces yet.
Writer/director/animator Dusan Kastelic's short animation is a surreal yet exuberant allegory about the pleasures and perils of non-conformity, being an individual and pushing through obstacles to a new level of consciousness.
The narrative takes the phrase "outside the box" and spins it into a deeply imaginative, hypnotic narrative that resembles a fairy tale. Not a sanitized children's version of a fairy tale, however: the film instead resembles the original European fairy stories, which were dark, psychologically complex and disquieting in their emotional violence.
The images are nightmarish, with their evocations of distorted flesh and murky colors. But the expressiveness of the creatures and attention to detail -- created in open-source 3-D software Blender -- are remarkable from a technical and emotional level, and draw in viewers with a powerful combination of gesture, sound and storytelling.
Despite the claustrophobic world portrayed in the film, there are splashes of zany humor and joy, particularly as the younger creature expresses its unbridled childlike self. The musical score and sound design by Mateja Staric go a long way to create contrast between stultifying conformity and youthful individualism, as well as keeping the narrative at a consistently engaging pace.
Despite its strange appearance, the uninhibited joyousness and high spirits of the newly emergent creature are so much like the energy of children, and viewers cannot help but relate. Yet THE BOX becomes genuinely sad and painful as the youngster is repeatedly brought down and cut down to size, and confronts the mechanisms of the box itself that keep its inhabitants docile and in the dark.
Watching that struggle becomes a powerful metaphor for the oppression and conformity that we all face, whether it's the box that society puts us inside or the ones we put ourselves in. To watch the creature struggle against a dark, narrow world is hard, and yet, as the creature discovers, as long as you can feel a spark of an essential self, there is always a way towards the light.

I think it was overlooked how the oddball's head stayed flattened like everyone else but still set himself free despite so, in some sort of way that level of comformity to everyone else would still come around as part of his growth even after overcoming the limitations set by society or what the box, like he was able to lift himself while also having been in the place the others are in

That part where all the creatures start laughing after their fellow's head gets boxed down is most heartbreaking. 😪
Reminds me of how "good" religious individuals mock those who are different and harshly treat those who are different until they either "conform" or, often, suicide. Unless those individuals are able to escape.
Yeah no
The worst is they didn't warn him. They feel better when he's brought down to their level and they perhaps laugh because he was a fool for wanting more.

Getting out of the box, is to have the courage to be different and remain true to your self. That is what for me meant this film. Decide to be different, to think outside of the box, to escape that box filled with limitations from society but also from our own self perceptions and the limitations we imposed to ourselves and project into others. You were born to be different!!
Artists are children who survived adulthood
Ummm what? So if your a child... and you ‘survive adulthood’ that makes you an artist? Wait I’m confused. What about adulthood kills you? And what does it kill? What are you going on about?
@@sapphiresushi3437 its ok man..
No I mean those questions r legit, like what do you mean they survived adulthood
I think it meant that the childlike curiosity and wonder survived

"Red Eyes" found a different path, escaped the norm. Doesn't think inside 'the box'. What waits outside is unknown, but took the chance.
Ahahaha

This short film has left me more uncomfortable and also searching for answers, I wonder what happened to the little brilliant guy outside that horrible box, that place is hell, I really feel so sorry to those poor lost souls who are stuck in limbo for how long only God knows, i just wish there was part two to clear my mind, nevertheless it is the most striking animation Ive ever seen, pliz do part two where all these miserable souls are free and their captivators are on the horrible box,
That wouldn't be an accurate depiction of life sunshine.
Yes.....but who knows? Maybe he got tortured after escaping? Where did he escape to? Was it better than the box?..... It's like blades of grass - if they get uprooted, they don't survive. Is it the same with these creatures? Is it the same with humans? For example - a runaway gets caught up in human trafficking.....
Haha, some people find bakchodi, excuses, and negativity in everything, getting caught up in board games instead of understanding the whole art.
I advise you to watch Tom & Jerry.
The short is an allegory about conformity - nearly all societies expect their members to conform to their norms. This story encouraged us to break free from those societal constraints to follow our true passions and, hence, our true selves. It ended with the protagonist breaking free from those (societal) constraints. A sequel wouldn't really make sense.
This animation deserves an award
This short film has left me highly disturbed but equally fascinated.

Not going to lie, when his head was smashed in, I felt a lot of emotion. I felt really bad because I realized that all of the others were once like him. They were all once unique until that happened to them. Makes me feel like this could represent what happens in every day life. If you're the black sheep, people will laugh and mock you until you're just like them.

Wow really??? I thought the creator just wanted to create a completely meaningless film.
@@globbyls4887 lmao dude. It could have many different meanings to people. Your sarcasm is honestly ridiculous. What do you want? Attention?
Jem Staxy - Watch it again...and instead of focusing on the one who was different...focus on the original main character, the one right beneath the light. Watch his character arc. That’s who the film is really about.
I like the one at the beginning. He's having a bad dream, and his inner child is coming through in the nightmare.
After being hammered, society laughs at him which makes him angry, but due to anger his eyes glows and glows brighter than ever showing that he used his anger as motivation. I suggest he should have also slapped his neighbor before escaping.

It’s not a bad thing. It’s just life. Life teaches us right from wrong and the different colors of emotions. Because we decide to be like everyone else for we like being apart of society. So I think it’s beautiful in that sense.
I found it to be more about individuality, how we are born with it, and society and those in it do its best to take it from you. Trouble is, we're all individuals. We're all the red eye'd child.

Very few videos ever stick with me, but this is an exception! Really strange and thought provoking, on many levels. You can ask so many questions, but not having the answers and letting everyone use their imagination is better than knowing!! Love it. I feel like the little guy singing now. I'm 71yrs old and anytime I am with a bunch of old farts my age, I feel just like him. If they want to act like those silent "stumps" ,fine, but I'm going to beat my belly and sing a silly song, like Pink Floyd's Run Rabbit Run song. Ooh,yay,yee,yay, wah!!!
Mr. Dusan Kastelic and Mr. Mateja Staric and the whole team behind the creation of this superb short film. My hearty congratulations to you all. It was not only a great animated story but it started lot of thought process in mind. New path finder is always discouraged is one of the thoughts. Nobody encourages the person who starts thinking out of the box is another thought. But above all, a thought came to my mind is little spiritual type. We are all prisoners in the hands of unknown destiny. That destiny has bound us to earth and we are just behaving like puppets in destinies hand. But rarely there is someone who thinks differently and gets himself free out of this box called as life. Once again, thanks for a thought provoking great short film. All the best. Shrirang V.

judging by the ending, the creatures will most likely start getting inspired by the dreamer and follow him. it shows how much just one person can do and how hope is contagious

So basically...
the machine = society
the odd one = a dreamer
the others = average folks who gave up on dreams a long time ago
the box = phony limitations
box-shaped heads = thinking inside the box (and being punished for not doing so)
bright eyes = hope, happiness and a sense of wonder
I wonder where he went...
My sentiments exactly
He went outside of the box where's Progress, Solution and being fortunate in the end...
up....
He got out of the box - the box of same old miserable reality people accept as the only choice they have, he ascended, he evolve, he made a choice - he chose to be different and not fall back into the norms of complacency of the old way of life or accepting he could not change anything for the better. They tried to make him like them and their view of life and to fit into their beliefs, they tried to stop him expressing himself and what made him unique so as to make him the same as them. This is what happens to every child to make them fit in to the prescribed view of how things should be. This is for all those people who get bullied and ostracized for being different and for not fitting in the same box as everyone else.

I love how everyone understands something different.
To me it's like a metaphor of giftedness. He's an active child, a trouble maker trying to create beauty and happiness but misunderstood. He refuses to fit in so much that society brings him down psychologically (The machine hitting his head). But his will is so strong he realizes something is wrong with the box he lives in. He manages to escape, doing something the others thought was impossible. They all gape at him, realizing he might have been a failure by their standards, but he achieved something no one else ever did.
Edit: I've come to learn that gifted children are way better treated in the US than in my country; in Spain there are no advanced classes, an abnormal IQ is medicated and treated like a disease, and 2 of every 3 gifted kids drop out before finishing highschool and most suffer from bullying and depression at some point. We have a society that is very much focused on standing out as little as possible. Just some context.
Dude, everyone talks about the same thing, just using different words, just like you. The eon old idea of being trapped into a system of control that works outside your sphere of influence, i.e. gods, demons, spirits, "the system", society, you name it.
Funny how everyone seems to miss that. Its an artistic depiction of some very old esoteric core teachings together with warnings of dangers and consequences for those following a certain path, like the one you described. Its an archetype that has its roots outside the knowable and manifests itself within the world in countless forms. Some of them can be read in the comments here, but most of them are very basic, barely touching the surface of what this archetype really points to, because going down that road gets very scary very fast.
😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😱😱😱😱😱😵😵😵
@Jer I have never seen Rick and Morty sorry😅
Leaving the box could also be a metaphor for suicide.
@@infjelphabasupporter8416 I don't think it is either, but the short is sufficiently ambiguous that it can be interpreted that way. :)
This is my analysis:
The light in the kid's eyes is happiness.
The flat-headed guys have became miserable because of their envy. They get mad at other's happiness, and they celebrate other's failures. That's why they can't stand the kid's joyful singing. They have no happiness (hence no light in their eyes) and they can't stand others being happy.
See that guy at 6:05 get scared as he sees the kid has grown taller and also developed legs? That's an envious person's ego feeling threatened. So the whole envious squad shouts to draw the machine's attention, because they know what will happen when that machine comes down. They want to bring down the young dude to make him unhappy like themselves. That's why they all laugh at him getting hammered down.
You know what's the worst part about this? They know how it works because they've been there before. They were all joyful once, and got smacked because of other's envy too. And still they can't even let others be happy.
I think that's how envious people work in the real world too.

Did anyone notice, that when he was a child, he was at front of the box. When he became middle aged, he was in middle. Also, he suffered immense pain when he was crushed, and instead of succumbing to the pain and the peer pressure, he utilized his pain to overcome the situation he was in and free himself. That's a beautiful depiction of society. Absolutely loved it.
So u dont need to stare to the people front and making the scene feels disturbed by it so they erase them. Stoopid
And his eyes had light in them while everyone else’s light was out
nah im pretty sure he was born in the middle cause if you notice he was under the lightbulb the hole time
He was always in the midle
It's not like he leaves society, rather "Stands aside from the line"
But still, a great, heavily distorted picture of society :D

The young guy, who was a dreamer has became one of them,one of the poeple, robots. But he decieded at the end to escape from the system. Escape means suicide. So Noone knows what happens after death.

okay so I'm assuming the box is like the world/society, and the one who was born was "thinking outside of the box" and "wasn't acting normal" so the others thought it was weird and didn't want him acting like that, and not just the others represented people. So did the music box. So when the music box came down and hit him on the head, I'm assuming that meant like "hey stop you're annoying" and made him like the others. The light in his eyes represented hope and whatnot. So when he got "hit back into place" it got rid of any hope he had. Maybe the light represented normality? I don't know. Then when he climbed out he didn't care about being normal anymore and "broke free of expectations" (the vines holding them down) I don't know if what I wrote even made sense, but that's what I got out of this ;-;

Or the tree stands erect in storm gets ripped
Great storytelling through a very difficult-to-use medium. Classic! I very well relate to the central character too. But this short film was up and out of there. Thanks for sharing!
Тоталитаризм без прикрас.
oh my god, I was afraid the whole movie that the main character would break under pressure and was so happy to watch until the end!
I thought he died at 7:59
Josh da boi After he is crushed, he still manages to sprout feet and escape the box.
So cute how one of them missed him and started doing the song and dance at the end.
He woke up! Enlightened! He gasped when he finally woke up!
@@JANEEDISTURBED there’s nothing out there......
YOU SPOILED IT FOR ME
All of them look so weird
i thought it was him at the upper level >
😢When U Realize That Everyine Was Like Him Once But Different thinking 😊
Allen Tsai / Omeleto and Dusan Kastelic - I had no idea you even existed until 15 mins ago when YT suggested your channel 😊
Moral of the story: We all fear to be that one change scaring of what society think. society will laugh and forced you to be the average until your success.
Don't you make the realization that the rest of them were just like him but were "squashed" by the machine? It's about a repressive system, with none of them able to resist it besides him, not about a society that laughs at you (although that is a byproduct).
Moral of the story: capitalism and classism sucks.
@@kfallon862 And so does every other system.
This is not it 💀
Notice who the main character in this short film is! All the comments below focus on the kid that got out, but the main character _isn't_ him; it's the one in the middle of the 7x7 box, the one who is directly under the light, the one the film starts with. Most of the film is a flashback explaining why he was having "nightmares" in the beginning.
The main message _isn't_ about how society tried and failed to suppress the individuality of the kid that got out--that's a old cliché. Rather, it's about how the main character, who represents most of us in society, was ultimately influenced by that kid despite being initially annoyed at him. In a way, the kid that got out was luckier than the others both in terms of disposition and circumstance--like how everyone laughing at him provoked him to remember his identity before the hole closed--but the film suggests that there is _hope_ for the others in that they might eventually be inspired to break free as well.
The post-credits scene then shows that it's not just our main character, but others in the box as well who have been influenced. One might even infer that his simple-mindedness (he's the one who never knows when to stop) gives him fewer barriers towards achieving self-actualization.
I thought it was the other old guy who kept singing and laughing late, and gets elbowed a lot. The intro was his, not the Anomalous Kid's neighbor who was under the direct light.
OMG YES!
Oh the lies
I actually read all that and understood it fml
Alright dude did the teacher tell you to write an essay on this
Well that ended up being a lot more meaningful then I expected.
This is just masterpiece right there i love it,i need more animations like this rn,this was just perfect
The one guy that was always next to him: *visible anger*
Think out of the box,!

Yehs.
You got that right!
Funny how they laugh at a grounded guy
@@brandonlai8029 Even funnier how that grounded guy got pissed off to the point he had enough, freed himself, and is the only one free! Hahaha
UWAEEEEE UWAAAAAA
Bro escaped the matrix
Am not trying to ruin anything but after all these years I just noticed they have ballsacks
Oh god
Yes. I found that a bit weird when I first saw the movie. Why are there no females?
I like how the one old dude was still laughing but when the other guy knocked him in the stomach he looked and stared in awe like everyone else as if he knew what happened. Reminds me of today’s social media; people won’t even be there but will automatically think they know everything and will react in the same way as those around them, not even knowing why they’re doing it.
the staring reaction just basic animal instinct. the inability to vocalize your true thoughts the social media aspect
Palestine and Israel supporters in a nutshell
The box is full of miserable creatures: *Office*
Sorry yoy misspelled it i think you ment school
But one of them is playing minesweeper
But one of them has autism and ADHD cancer FASD and is on lsd
the creatures = *our society/species*
the box = *learned helplessness*
the machine = *our lovely government*
*school*
The best short film I have watched today. I love it.
