I felt such a sense of community between these kids. They felt like a family, even if they aren’t blood related. Excellent work on this film!

Another thought : after I watched it again, I now think I know what the movie is about : childhood. No matter what happens, it's just about living your life and having fun. In that way, those kids are examples.

Thank you so much for having me on this team! It was a pleasure working on the music! 💃🏾

Me too!! I love how each person put a part of themselves into the scarf. When you see the last scene the little girl doesn't have her hat anymore, which probably means she gave it for the scarf!

I wish I was as brave as Kakomando. This story is sooo inspiring and really hits many aspects of deep friendship that often doesn't get displayed on screen. This type of freedom and exploration, I haven't seen since the 80s in films like the Goonies. Really incredible work here.

I guess it should only make sense that great set design would fuse so perfectly with a passion for parkour

That should be a serious national sport. With enough filming and creative design, it would be 10x more entertaining than the sport of Track

It was so heartbreaking watching the dad beat the main kid and how none of the others could do anything to help him 😢

​@@Cutthecamerasdeadass1899so judgamental comment, what the heck is wrong with u?

The visual storytelling is incredible, i could tell something would happen with the father with the way he was so wary to wake him up, and the thing he stole as they were lighting it up and plugging it in, in the back of my mind i thought that could be a fire hazard, and then there was. So great job dropping subtle hints about the story and characters without needing to say much out loud

I love the rough look of this world and the vibrant colors that make our rag tag group of kids stand out!

I love that they made the patchwork scarf out of their clothes! So sweet!

Lovely stuff, great fusion of Ugandan, Brazilian and Asian cultures!!

I knew something bad was gonna happen with the dad but that escalated quickly and I wasn't ready. But this was super cool and well done. I love these animations :)

I love when media has kids play kids in whatever they're in instead of having like adults play them.

More gorgeous animation! These artists and animators are so talented. Congratulations 🎈🍾🎉🎊

Mind u it's students working on this projects.

there is so much to unpack here, but the fire scenes are especially interesting. 1. the 'waking up' to reality - childhood/the games are over. The adult, being flawed, beats up a child. a. this is not the first time kakomando is beat up. this is either his family or someone he knows which is worse. b. while the adult is beating him up, he repeats that 'this' (whatever it is) is the kid's fault. Even though the adult de-attaching the battery caused an even bigger issue. 2. the fire a. one of the most interesting parts is the adult staring up at the fire. he finally looks up and realise (to *some* extend what he caused) YET he does not apologize, he just takes it as 'life' and moves on while dazed, not realising his blame. He ditches the kid in the flames which more painful if we consider him to be the one in charge of kakomando. b. the additional seconds that the camera zooms into the burning house is especially painful, they let the audience think about the sudden shift between happy childhood moments and adult life. this is also echoed by how the leader's attitude completely changes towards his friends. it would be impossible to say that the moment 'turned sour', because it did not. the shift was sudden, the safe electric light cut out almost instantly and turned into a dangerous fire. the playful safe house burnt to the ground. this is all emphasised by the couple of seconds that the camera shows the house burning.

The rise after the fire is also just as notable! Even though the main character had stressed out inside the fire, the kids must've understood that it was a momentary lapse. They could have decided to leave him completely alone, but instead made a new scarf and waited for him expectantly to be ready on his own. I think, nowadays, that's a pretty mature way for those kids to emotionally handle what happened in that fire

The art style reminds me a lot of Tekkonkinkreet. I hope they got some inspiration from that movie/manga. Beautiful short film!

Emotional rollercoaster and beautiful animation style. What a wonderful short. Interesting world

I really love it. Deserves a web serie! 😮

ALL OF THESE ARTISTS ARE SO TALENTED, I STRIVE TO BE LIKE THEM!

Absolutely adore this afrofuture worldbuilding. Could have a whole series just from this short. Amazing work!

It's so sad that the people we call family, that was with us for most part of our life's are the strangers that we never want to see again

Those painted backdrops were GORGEOUS!!! Stunning!!! I love the motion of the running sequence so much, feels wonderful.

Such a poignant story!! I loved the colours, the style is very playful I think. The voice actors did great, too!! A wonderful job in all regards

Happy to see a Ugandan setting 😁

Me at the start: ooh this is so cute! Me at the end: wait no, this was supposed to be wholesome 😭 Edit: I still very much liked the ending and the animation is gorgeous.
