movie review - The House of Small Cubes
the journal of Michael Werneburg
twenty-seven years and one million words
Toronto, 2017.11.20
This is a perfectly-paced animated short about a rising flood that causes one aging gentlemen to progressively build new stories onto his home. When he drops his pipe into the rising waters, it's a cause for him to re-explore all of the previous levels and what each layer of his home taught him through the events that happened when he lived at each.
It's delicately drawn, it's virtually silent, and it's quite engrossing.
Recommended.
