Although narrative is only a fragment, as living happily ever after entails quite a lot of subsequent deeds, it is bracketed by an artificial beginning and end. Where art prefers to tantalise or obfuscate, animation tends to show its hand, tell the whole story.

Take the hero…

We are all the hero of our own life, with a love interest and time element for tension, and fallibility to make us likeable. These short films have been selected for the beautiful heaps of pathos that accompany their heroes.
