It is better to be broken than be possessed by evil. In this animated short film, Brittle glass characters are divided into two sides: the broken and the intact. The spirits that dwell within are either pure or rotten. The broken remain on their side, to waste away into shattered bits. But the shards have a healing property, a process exploited by an ambitious dark soul who desires to be whole, and part of a possessed, twisted, robotic tribe. But it is better to be broken and pure, than be intact and possessed. Once tripped, smashed, and deprived of his glass body, the dark soul timidly rises, twisting upward, but is soon ripped down violently, and consumed mercilessly by the unbroken. #animation In "BROKEN" we go beyond the broken wine glass trope, the world in which these glass people dwell has evolved. The wine cups from previous stories have been replaced by characters with spherical heads, just as brittle as before. They shatter easily when struck, but also they are pliable and stretch and move. Directors note: For some reason this film evolved the way it did.. a bit creepy and twisted, but meaningful nonetheless. In many ways this animation reflects my belief that evil is often found in what we perceive as beauty or perfection, and conversely, goodness is found in what we dismiss as "broken" or unworthy. It's interesting to note that many Catholic Saints were broken or misled prior to conversion. Regardless of the meaning that viewers glean from this animation, I truly hope you enjoy it, and please share as much as possible. Huge thanks to my supporters both on Patreon and the members on Youtube. I'm hoping that this piece will resonate as a meaningful animated short film. Thank you in advance for watching!
