rabbit: A Short Film by Run Wrake

That's just really creepy and weird. And quite worrying, considering the main characters are children. I understand the greed thing, but its still really strange.

Oooh I liked the style and subject of this. pretty neat.

For some reason it reminded me of an old Aeon Flux (the cartoon)episode. In the episode a Deity arrives and can change things to be more transcendent (guess thats the word I'm thinking of). It changes a bird into a "enlightened" version (prettier, glowing etc), and a bullet into gems.

The use of children, I think, presented an Augustinian view of Original Sin -- that even children are born not innocent, but totally depraved.

If I had a projector at my church, I'd use it as a sermon illustration.

Allegory or animators with latent pre-serialkiller tendencies???

Typical of the attitude of the Internet generation unfortunately..... perhaps they should consider some therapy.

i was disappointed.. specially with the conclusion.. they wasted a idea with pontencial

I like my moral allegories to come in under a minute 30.

I have seen this before and consider it to be one of the gems of the Internet. A childish view of greed and its consequences. While I am tempted to over analyze, a piece of art such as this can stand or fall on its own.

Let me explain this for the people who don't get it:

The girl sees a pretty rabbit, and thinks it would make a nice muff. So she, with the help of her friend (or brother, not sure). When they kill it by cutting it open, flies and a satan-like dude some out. As a reward for their evil-doing he zaps the flies into jewels. Then he goes into the kitchen and finds some jam. He likes jam, and zaps some more flies into jewels. The next part I don't q

I've seen this video before on a couple of different sites and I'm pretty sure the actual title is Rabbits and the Idol. Might want to check into that one...

The kids got the right idea, they just ran into some logistics problem (and who hasn't run into those?)

A fantastic concept though - overall, a very neat film.

According to Run Wrake's website, the film is called "Rabbit".
