Indeed not. I believe anyone who *SPOILER {* has ever obsessed over a lost
beloved one for far too long only to get that bitter taste of *} SPOILER* can
relate strongly to the movie.
While Blender Foundation's open-movies are essentially tech demos for their
latest blender developments (and help those developments happen by actually
asking for them for a real production), I like how their movies are pretty
subjective and contain a strong element of ridicule and meta-criticism for a
given genre.
Like, in the previous one, Big Buck Bunny, they ridicule the whole "furry
animals cartoons" and some of their conventions, like "cross-eyed" eyes and
turning cute little animals into pathologic bullies. In Sintel, they ridicule
the whole "lone hero in an epic journey" concept to truly sinister
consequences...
