Il Dhust è un cortometraggio animato estremamente creativo che si concentra sulle persone di dimensioni ridotte che fanno girare il nostro mondo. The talented director that helmed this, Bianca Pietersz, produced this film entirely during the pandemic. Her first animated short, Il Dhust, starts off by showing us two scientists watching Albert Einstein struggling over his work. Enter the Dhusts, who help Einstein uncover the world’s most famous equation. I really dug the look of the film. They combine real world imagery with 2D animation, which is something we don’t see a whole lot of. Penso che l'animazione stessa potrebbe utilizzare fotogrammi extra per migliorare l'aspetto dei personaggi animati sullo schermo. Penso anche che i realizzatori avrebbero potuto usare le proprie foto; in questo modo non avrebbero dovuto solo ingrandire tutte le immagini che avevano. Tuttavia, puoi facilmente guardare il film senza essere troppo distratto da queste cose.
Per quanto amo l'animazione, Vorrei che potessimo passare più tempo con Kali o con i suoi nonni. Con un film così corto, I think it would benefit the film to focus on one story or the other. Halfway through, the audience switches from the story of Albert Einstein and Kali’s grandparents to Kali explaining everything that has happened since the creation of the earth.
The world they built in 5 minutes is pretty impressive. I think the reason I feel the way I do is because the film is the length that it is. They did a great job of setting up this world where these tiny people help us achieve all of our breakthroughs. I’m not sure if there is a second episode, so devoting time to setting up this whole world right after I had already got invested in what was going on with Einstein, felt a little strange. I think there’s a way to explain why these tiny people are so special without having Kali deliver a bunch of exposition.
Retouching on the aspect of creativity, I loved the theme song that was featured in this short. It’s just something that can elevate a short film like this to something more than it would have been. The film has humor, cleverness, and is just fun to watch. I can tell that these people had fun creating this and that’s the whole reason I appreciate filmmaking. It’s fun to do. My biggest criticism is that I wish I had more time with this story and that’s the best problem to have.
I would personally give this film 4 per 5 stelle.
