Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

The movie explores the relationship between a Nazi boy and a Jewish girl. The boy finds the girl in an abandoned house. The boy help the girl out from trouble when they were young, they have a chance to meet each other again after many years have passed.
The story starts with the scene that flash forward to almost the end of the story, after that they start to recall the events in the past. There are only 6 lines in this movie since they are fixed in the competition. But the emotional scene and visual story telling by actor is very strong. The audience can fall deep into the movie within the 3 minutes period. I considered this film genre as a thriller since it makes I fall into an excitement and flow with the character emotional and situation easily.
The movie use unicorn model as a key item of the movie. The boy keeps pieces of broken unicorn model to remind him of the girl he helped. The unicorn plays the important role throughout the movie, from their first met, separated, and reunited again. We can say that the entire movie has a unicorn model as a connector.

This short movie moves my heart. It is in World War 2 and a boy is main character. He is a German soldier and he found a Jewish girl in occupied house. Although he must catch her, he allows her to escape because of his conscience.
We can catch characters feeling easily despite there are few words. For example, the girl's scary appearance looks real. Moreover, the boy's delusion is expressed by moving his eyes confusedly. By looking on her eyes many times, his delusion that he should catch her or not is expressed. In addition, I think that camerawork is nice. The conversation between the two occurs in a hidden hole in the house. It is dark. It is not easy to watch, and it is a very narrow space. There is no other intervention. Therefore, we can concentrate on only the two. Moreover, camerawork is very near to their faces because it is narrow space. To do that, we can feel their breathing and expression clearly.

This is about a memory of an old man. It begins with a scene where an old man walks to visit to someone's house with a little brown parcel. A unicorn plays a meaningful part in this film. The scene where a boy is hit on the head and the porcelain unicorn is broken is very cruel and sad. However, this porcelain unicorn connects a boy and a girl finally. That's why this film moves and impresses us very much. Though this film is very short, we can guess that they have endured many hardship for a long time, even if there are a few lines of dialog in this film. I recommend you to watch this wonderful film.

What is that? It's a unicorn. Never seen one up close before. Beautiful. Get away. Get away. I'm sorry.In this movie, only these six sentences are used. We first realize this scene was about 1940's by the scene that focuses on the mark "star of David" on her clothes. It's a symbol of Jewish nation. Men whose appearance is scary are maybe the Nazis. In the third line, the period backgrounds were expressed. The boys who seem to find something were maybe working under them. One of the boys looked at the mark and said to her "Never seen one up close before." The time of Jew-baiting, he saw the mark so close and longer for the first time. I think then he realized the beauty of the believing what she thinks is right, that it is beautiful. So, when the unicorn is broken by a man, he must feel empty. How else would he send her a unicorn when he got old? Unicorn is their bridge. It saved both of them. If their destiny had been over at that time, I would have felt inconsolable grief.
