The short film contains 90 portraits of beautiful women's heads from 1,000 years after the millennium AD to the present day (see below).
Original philip Scott Johnson is a brilliantly conceived, and the background music and graphics are a perfect combination. The soundtrack is Bach's middle, played by the famous Chinese cellist Yo-Yo Ma, and the music itself is noble, idyllic and elegant.
The short film was nominated for the second Annual YouTube Most Creative Short Film Award. Please click on the following Tencent video link to watch:
