Great animation, very moving! I completely identify with masking yourself to try to be "normal", it's probably why i love masks in general.😮 This reminds me of how Changelings, what people of the old world called Neurodivergent people like us. Normal people would see them as not even the same race, not even their children, but a faery child and a fake. Something to throw into a fire and get their real child returned to them.😢 On the other hand, I am a firm believer that legends of magical people like Wizards and Witchs may have originated from people perceiving the actions and abilities that a Neurodivergent adult could do seemingly effortlessly, like magic. If you look at their behaviors, too, it is very reminiscent of autistic behavior, prefering to be alone and only liking company of other magical folks, being strange and rather off-putting, and genrrally not fitting in. In my opinion, being wired differently doesn't make us bad, just different, weird in a good way! We are all wizards!😊🧙‍♂️

When he removed the mask I was like "Top ten anime plot twists"

I love how you dedcided to show masking, I love how everyone else is an animal and he's not. Little side note, I'm Autistic, but not diagnosed when I was a kid. I went to the zoo a lot when I was little, and the only time I ever got to pick something from the gift shop I picked this nice, soft, styrofoam Polar Bear mask. I loved that mask. I loved the way it felt on my face. I ran around and felt better than everyone else in that mask. I still have it. But, this film really reminded me of that, so, thank you.

I'm crying so much, I understand, I understand

Now I get the point: Furries are authists...or authists are furries...whatever :D

I’m not crying you are

😭❤️

As an autistic person, this is kinda relatable

Есть кто живой?

Благодарю авторов мультфильма за такой глубокий смысл. Казазхская анимация сегодня выходит на мировой уровень, я и моя дочь плакали, когда сиотрели мультфильм,уверена,что такой мультфилм нужен детям и взрослым❤❤❤

Привет, это снова я. Всё ещё не освободилась от дел? Предложение в силе, отпишись если что-то решила.

I've watched this film two times now. I have a really close friend who's autistic and I'm hoping to get diagnosed soon too (the signs are blindingly obvious). I think the part that really hit me the hardest was when the kid woke up in their bed, put their mask back on, we saw the cuts on their face, and they curled up on the floor. It was only a few seconds but I think that it really captures a huge struggle with a lot of mental illnesses. I am currently diagnosed with depression, lots of anxiety, ADHD, and suffer from many other issues. Feeling misunderstood and hating yourself for not looking like/acting like everyone else is hard, and we all cope differently. I struggle with cutting. I know its not good for me and it isn't really helping, but it provides me with temporary relief and helps me feel as though I am being properly punished. I'm working on getting better about it, but seeing the cuts on such a young kid's face really felt like a bullet to the heart. There should be more awareness and acceptance around issues like self-harm and mental illness because so many people are struggling. Thank you for making this film and I'm sorry this comment I'd so long, but there's so much to say about such and amazing and touching depiction of mental illness and autism. ❤

Wow. Es maravilloso.

Nice channel name.

My sister showed me this film, and I have to say… this is a beautiful masterpiece!! I love how you represent Autistic Masking and Autism itself! Love how the animals represent neurotypical people and humans represent neurodiversity, what a plot twist! -From an autistic 8th grader who is going to graduate less in 2 weeks (that’s me who commented on your video).

What Being a therian feels like:

Это просто шикарный мультфильм, хочу чтобы по телевизору показывали

This touches my soul ❤

I appreciate the way this portrayal of autism delves into the concept of wearing a mask to hide inner struggles. As a parent of autistic children, it effectively captures the anxiety that many parents experience, particularly those who may feel overwhelmed or unsure about how best to support their little ones. The depiction of autism in this context resonates deeply with the need for increased autism awareness in society today. It sheds light on the challenges faced by individuals and families, highlighting the importance of empathy and understanding. The portrayal also touches on the unfortunate reality of facing judgmental attitudes from others, instead of receiving the support and compassion that is truly needed.

TBH What are Rocks even used for Anyway?

This shortfilm is so well made that I knew what it was about. I don't have autism, but I feel this film is a very accurate depiction of what I heard it's like.

Time waste.

As someone with autism, this was my life. I had no idea about the mon’s experience though. Beautiful movie, thank you for making it

Особым детям очень необходимы друзья.. Как и особым родителям..

This reminds me of therianthropy…

Thank you so, so, much for this. As an autistic kid myself, I've never really felt like I... belong. human. I've felt like I'm something else. animal. outsider. I love this. it shows how we autistic people view the world. too loud. too judging. too much. Thank you for seeing us.

Que linda historia, nos hace reflexionar,. Que la humanidad hay que aceptarlos con sus diferencias,. Que sean, como sean, los amamos igual, y más a los hijos.!

o curta consegue trazer exatamente como uma pessoa diferente, autista se sente. mesmo tentando se encaixar, pode parecer realmente difícil, não basta você ser só você, precisa ser mais quee isso.

..то никто тебя никогда не найдёт..

how I love your film 🥰

I don't know if anyone notices but we can see the rabbit friend at the very beginning at 1:20 drawing on the ground. As an autistic person, I relate a lot to the animation and I loved how it was interpreted.

мегакруто сделано

I love how I had no idea it's about ASD but immediately felt so strongly connected to the child I cried. Amazing animation, the sound effects were so good too, I love it

Beautiful

Very beautiful done!

I personally feel that it's the other way around. The neurodivergent people are the ones who are the animals. My friend, let's call him S, is an arctic fox. D is a red panda. I am a cat. E is a raccoon. My mom's a cat, too. She's a Maine Coon. Not in reality, though. They just have similar personality traits to their animal. I usually tell them what their animal is, if they want to know it. Everyone else is a human, though.

Это так комфортно 🥰. Обожаю их

This was your first time using procreate? This is incredible! Aughhh the colors are so warm and nice and all the scenery and things in the foreground and background are so beautiful. Perfect place for sunny sleeps on your girlfriend’s lap. Wonderful work

Yahuu, new video🎉🎉🎉, it's so cuuute(^з^)-☆Chu!!

As a person who is diagnosed with autism, this feels pretty connecting. I'm considered 'high functioning'. My guardians know I'm diagnosed with Autism, ODD, Aspergers, Social Anxiety, Combined ADHD(ADHD+ADD), and depression but they act like I'm not. At 2:36 reminds me of how my guardians often ask, 'What's wrong with you?' or 'Are you crazy?'. I generally have problems and they refuse to acknowledge it. I'm 14 and still can't tell my left from right, and have a hard time thinking before acting. I remember seeing this short film before, when I was 11 or 12. I didn't really understand it. At 5:04 I also felt a connection. I've never really felt like my guardians are my real parents nor that I belong with them. Especially not my step-grandfather. He's greedy, self-centered, and mean. My grandma wants me to acknowledge him as family, and as a grandfather, but he never will be to me. I think family is who you're biologically related to.
