The most dangerous people are not these ugly cartoonish villains with ominous laughter, but the charismatic persons, who have everyone's respect, from whom you could never guess what they are actually planning. They are the best manipulators.

I think the details are what make Gobelins animations so much better to me than any other film studio- you can see all the care and thought that was put into it. In this one, I love the sinister imagery of him eating objects that look like people towards the beginning, then the devil's costume he wears at the carnival, and the little doll he tosses into the hole. It's such good foreshadowing. I also noticed how the man's son never stopped crying, because the carnival didn't actually help him, it was just a distraction from the actual problem.

This is such a sad truth... That the privilege of becoming a leader keeps falling into the wrong hands and it's starting to become a common occurrence. Such a powerful message, and beautiful visuals as always 💙 Thank you, Gobelins family!

the irony being like irl. the pothole being in middle of the road and ppl want it fixed/filled up, doesnt cost that much money realistically but the city or whoever owns/control that area doesnt want to. but instead holds event which costs more or promote something to keep ppl attention away from it while boosting their rep/ego.

@MrMelonsz

Exactly, they should, but they won’t because the governments run the schools and need to approve what we teach our kids before we teach it to them (which is insane). They wouldn’t approve this because *they are* corrupt, and this would expose them for what they really are.

It's very interesting to notice how the mayor slowly becomes less subtle, from casually stealing an apple to literally put himself on a "memorial" of the fallen postman. I was unsure on him being a literal devil in the end because I saw him as an Umbridge rather than a Voldemort, but then again, they are interchangeable in the end.

This piece is hitting waaaaaaay too close to my Eastern European home.

Everything from "climate change" to "ever growing economy" could very easily fit in that hole. Absolutely great job guys!

Between the (literally) killer animation and the insightful storyline, this is phenomenal work!! I particularly love the social commentary in this. It shows how people with power (politicians, celebrities, etc.) can really influence a crowd into believing a lie, like, how some historical events are celebrated when, in fact, they marked the onset of tragedy (think of how Indigenous People's Day in the U.S. used to go by Columbus Day--it was a political PR move). This piece of animation makes you think about what else is being used for propaganda--anyways thanks for your hard work :D

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Columbus day was literally just to make the Italian immigrants shut up about how the government was oppressing them by giving them a tiny insignificant holiday for a corrupt man that nobody cares about and slapping the title "Italian hero" on it expecting them to never complain again about issues that actually mattered, a lot like this animations plot.

I love the voice for the mayor! Especially the way he says "Delicious"... It makes me feel tingly and unnerved. All the characters are so cute, too! Especially the little ol mailman

This reminds me of our life on the internet. Always having fun and scrolling trough content ignoring how everything big companies are doing with us isn’t even regulated By law. The data they gather, all of the cookies, our information. We don-t even know how much they are taking but it-s a hole we decide to ignore

At 0:21 you can already see one of the statues, which you see again in 4:18. Amazing detail!

You know it's evil from the beginning, my man just straight up left half its breakfast on the plate and went for a walk

I knew it, the politicians are in league with the potholes!

I remembered this as another Marcos takes the presidency in the Philippines. History is being revised under our noses and so many have fallen for it.

Never have I wanted to share something so badly. This NEEDS to be shared. It's that good and relatable 👏 well freaking done!!

This is fantastically executed, the animation is so fluid and polished, and the message is really relevant and influential. It's subtle, so you don't have the full picture until near the end or upon a second watch but has so much foreshadowing and buildup. You all did an excellent job.

im in love with his voice

Love the little details: him stealing an apple from the market lady rather than paying for it as he says “he’s at his best”, him throwing the child into the “hole in one”, him not asking for or saying the mailman’s namr

“Delicious!” Our initial introduction to the character: 0:46 “D E L I C I O U S !” Our official introduction to the character: 4:40

This is absolutely amazing, the message, the art, the twist all executed perfectly, that was one of the best flips in mood ive ever seen, loved it, really amazing work!!!

Talk about amazing character design! And his voice actor just tops off the whole deal! The Governor is an extremely enjoyable villain.

This man is so evil and i'm still in love with him

This feels like whats happening with in the political system vs the people, how there's rarely any justice. this is both heart-warming and heart aching.Thank you.

It’s amazing to see creatives using animation as a medium to tell such important stories

I love Gobelins for the animation, but wow! That lead's voice work was fantastic!

This what exactly what happening these day and age. So horrible days that we are living

I love that his devil costume’s tail wags! cool detail!

i really loved the story and i'm also impressed with how you managed to render this abstract subject. Like the idea of the hole, the shape of the protagonist.. It was really interesting

This is really the best reminder to those who die And there's even more mean to this animation The way it was putted in and the way they show the scene Those are marvelous amazing resemblance Really sells the imaginary meaning

Terrifying but true. It’s so important to deliver this message especially through art. It’s more accessible to every king of public, and intense as it touch our feeling and emotions. Bravo, it’s amazing. Critical thinking it’s so important in every century and we always should remember this.

This is absolutely amazing. Big kudos and congratulations to the team behind this. Translating a heavy and complicated topic into something a child can understand is not an easy feat. This film mirrors a lot of realities especially in countries where governments silence or kill activists for wanting genuine change. More power to you GOBELINS!
