Red Balloons: Soul and Consolation

The film tells the story of a little boy who accidentally picked up a red balloon on his way to school, and later became good friends with the red balloon, accompanying each other. But unfortunately, at the back of the film, the balloon is broken by a group of jealous children...
The bright sky in the distance is a stark contrast to this small town. With a small town with a cool blue tone, a bright red balloon came into the picture with the movement of the little boy. It can be said that in this short film, the most eye-catching and eye-catching is the color of the balloon. It seems that every picture has the appearance of this red balloon.
The little boy walked a long, long way with this red balloon. The balloon played with the little boy, it was naughty like a elf following behind the little boy, the little boy took the balloon to shield the wind and rain, crossed the road, and snatched it from the hands of the group of children, for fear that it would be hurt a little. Running with it, through the long alley, even though we still see people hate this balloon in the short film, the little boy never gave up on it. Between them, it was like seeing a tacit understanding.
This film has very little verbal dialogue throughout, and the brisk tone runs through the whole film, but at the moment when the balloon is broken, all the sound disappears. It is breathless to watch the balloon slowly, slowly become smaller and fall to the ground. The situation at this time must be like the mood of a little boy, like being hit hard in the back of the head, the brain and heart are blank, and the world has become silent.
The balloon closed its eyes, but its dead body could still feel pain, because it felt the loneliness and loneliness of the little boy, and its heart was painful. However, at that moment, it seemed that not only the red balloons had magic, it seemed that the balloons in the entire small town had magic attached to a soul, flying in the direction of the little boy, and they were all kinds of colors, splendid and colorful. Just like the soul of the original red balloon, he was with the little boy.
The disappearance of the red balloons is the little boy's pain, but when the little boy grabs those colorful balloons with joy, it is also a gentle consolation for the little boy.
