film | talk to another me ///

Talking to another meSee below for an award winning animation titled Talk to Another Me (对另一个自己说) by Su Yalin (苏雅琳) and Kang Guangxu (康广旭).

Su and Yang are recent graduates of the Communication University of China in Nanjing with degrees in animation – they submitted Talk to Another Me as their senior project.

According to Su and Kang, they based the plot to Talk to Another Me on the sprouting sexual consciousness of an adolescent child and the longing for sexual interaction of an aging grandfather as a way to illustrate the most basic nature of all human beings. The short also aims to raise awareness and concern for special education / handicapped children and the sense of loneliness felt by China’s generation of youth from single-child families.

Check it out, it’s very well done. Interestingly, Su and Kang present the short’s narration in Shanghainese (with English subtitles) and don”t shy away from sexually explicit undertones and imagery. A ballsy move for a university project in China.

    觉得悠扬的口琴配画面 没有小孩的独白会更忧伤 比如看A那段可以只剩音乐了 观众就被带入了。其他地方也减少画外音 我觉得迷茫压抑的效果不比这个成片效果差。
