Duration: 6 minutes and 58 seconds
Under the deep blue night sky, in the middle of the quiet and deep sea, a small boat called "La Luna" shook. On the boat sat three generations of grandchildren, a grandfather with a long white beard, Kong Wu's strong father, and a little boy with clear and bright eyes.
Although there are always contradictions between these three people, the battle between Grandpa and Dad is so hilarious!
The points of their quarrels are trivial, like we are not convinced by each other because of the disagreement of opinions on trivial matters of life.
Grandpa thinks that wearing a hat should be higher, and Dad thinks that wearing a lower one is cooler!
When the moon climbed up the treetops, Grandpa thought he should use a long broom to pack the stars, and Dad thought he should use a short broom.
You read that right, they really pick the stars! This animation has a real imagination, they can fly, they can climb ladders, they can pick stars, and the imagination is so rich that you can't close your mouth.
Finally, Grandpa and Dad quarreled again over the tools used to sweep the stars, but when the boy continued to clean, he took neither the broom like Grandpa's beard nor the short broom that his father called, and he took a shovel.
When a child encounters a choice in the process of growing up, will he be told the correct answer directly, or will he explore it himself? This film will give you the answer you want.

Duration: 7 minutes and 43 seconds
This animated short film quickly became popular as soon as it was announced that year, because it hit the sore spots of many Chinese parents without fail.
The short film of less than 7 minutes, without a single line, shows the most authentic side of China's parent-child relationship.
A small bun grew hands and feet, and he became a little baby on the tip of his mother's heart.
This little baby grew up day by day under the careful care of his mother, he gradually had his own personality, he longed for independence, eager to stay away from the family, which was simply bad news for his mother.
She tried everything to obstruct unsuccessfully, and in the disappointment and anger, swallowed her "bag baby" in one bite.
In the end, the mother woke up from a dream, which turned out to be a nightmare, but this dream was a true portrayal of her son's growth.

Negative Space
Keywords: father and son, deep, parting
Duration: 5 minutes
This is a stop-motion animation about the love of father and son, and the overall tone is very warm, gently tugging at the audience's heartstrings about "father".
In this film, the father needs to travel for a long time, and before each business trip, the child will always help the father pack his bags in order to make the father praise himself more.
In the suitcase that the father taught his son again and again, the feelings of father and son slowly became intimate, which is their unique way of getting along with father and son.
At the end of the film, his father died unexpectedly, and at his father's funeral, the boy saw his father's lonely body in a large coffin, and he thought of the words his father had taught him:
"Look at the wasted space."
At this moment, the "negative space" is the remaining space in the father's coffin, and it is also the space between the boy and the father.
Although father and son will never see each other again, as long as the love in their hearts is still there, this love will be eternal.
Today's recommended 6 animated short films can be said to be the best synonym for "short and concise"! Some are about growth, some are about friendship, some are about life.
I don't know how long children will remember after watching it, but I believe that some of the touches will shine into a timeless brilliance at some point in their future lives.
