Sejong Park's Birthday Boy
2006-Dec-6 by Laughcalvin
During the Korean War, little Manuk plays on the streets of his village and dreams of life on the front. When he returns home, he finds a birthday present that will change his life. Siggraph film festival winner and Academy nominated animated short from Sejong Park. Reminds me a lot of Spielberg’s Empire of the Sun where war quickens the pace to adulthood from childhood. Watch it.
