This should be proof to all film producers, quality over quantity is what matters to the viewer. With less than 14 mins total run time, this short-film is an absolute masterpiece. The choice of using humor to tell a serious story about the loneliness of "being different", I truly believe it was told beautifully. I wish to thank and give many hugs to everyone involved in creating it.
A good short film, great message.
I disagree with your perspective on the portrayal of individuals with Down syndrome in the movie. The film is rife with stereotypes and paints an unreasonably bleak picture of their lives. People with Down syndrome would never have such a universally sad existence, and the idea that they would kill someone is both unrealistic and offensive. Furthermore, the ending suggests that happiness is only achievable through productivity, which contradicts the reality of a world centered on love and acceptance. In a Down syndrome world, happiness is not about productivity but about love, connection, and mutual support.
@@clemens3118you clearly don't know anyone who downs, and your opinion is not based on any fact. It's literally bs
@@clemens3118I think you've missed some of the message. Portraying them trying to kill him isn't meant to suggest at all that killing him is something they would do because they have Down's Syndrome. It's meant to show that "getting rid" of physically different people is something that OUR "normal" society, historically. Moreover, it says the opposite of what you think; it's saying they aren't even capable of our REAL WORLD brutality in their world because it's too complicated.
@@lasado27That's, like, the definition of an opinion. If it were a factual matter, then there wouldn't be any room for an opinion...
凄く深いんだろうけど私にとってはただただ微笑ましくて新しい靴の審査委員？さんが1回ずつべりべりして「……😄👍！」ってやった時思わずみんなと一緒に笑顔になっちゃった
私もです!英語は分からないけど、物語はしっかり伝わってくるので楽しめました☺️
私の兄がダウン症なのですごい微笑ましかったです
よくこれだけの数のダウン症の役者集められたな。それだけで凄い。
I thought this was gonna be malicious but it was actually wholesome and had a good message.
this needs a LOT more recognition than it has
Amazing film that has a lovely message and doesn't dehumanize anyone. So much love for the story craft and quality in this piece.
This film can be thought of in so many ways. Really opens up for a conversation with many different views. Great job.
People with Autism can be seen as unable to do certain types of social behaviour well, but they can also be seen as the people who invent half the stuff in the world, and who build and maintain insanely technical and precise machinery while also being able to communicate intricate concepts extremely well; once you learn how to communicate with them. :)
It takes all kinds.
How is this channel not getting more views ? The quality is insane
Manu same love these short films
Vanmorgen per ongeluk dit kanaal ontdekt. Zelfde vraag kwam meteen bij mij op. En blijdschap. Omdat ik per ongeluk zo iets moois heb ontdekt.
Read your comment and decided to sub, lol.
@@leonchalow do u know wether he/she subbed or not? Why the back handed unnecessary nothingness coming from your 🥧🕳

I’m here because of TikTok. Solid short film. Definitely was down with it 🤙🏻
This is like the story of my life. I really relate with the main character.
Greattt amazing
This movie is hilarious and I love the messages about being different. It's amazing how almost the whole cast has Down Syndrome. I've never seen it and probably never will again in a movie!
Very good! 👌
Such a simple yet beilliant concept...it made me laugh and cry all at once. Best thing on internet today
World where there is constant hugging? I'd like to live in this world.
I'm sure this video is trying to teach you a lesson and stuff. But all I kept thinking about was how rich I would be if I was living in a world like that🤣
I love people with ds they are so cute
Pedagogic worthful demonstration of how to integrate different looking and thinking people for a better running society. 🍷😘
What you do mean when you say "incorporating different looking people into society"?
They're all white and only two people look different.
BRAVO++++++
I spent many summers working with MHAB, this film is awesome & makes me smile at the great things these creators have achieved x
What's MHAB? I'm from spain and when I google it only a song appears. Can I suppose it's some kind of ONG for down syndrome?
nice one ❤❤
Keep down the good work!
Down Squad for life

Such a good laugh well done everyone🎉👫🧚♀️🌚
