My Big Sister

[@Hannah-hr6rz]

I like the symbolism of passing the lollipop to the younger sister, then the makeup, the cigarette, and eventually the keys. It shows themes of growing up/reaching diff milestones of adolescence, and the idea of being handed down things from an older sibling. With the makeup, the older sibling applies it messily, like it’s skill she’s just picked up on, but she still uses her newfound knowledge to help the younger sister. It shows how the older sibling, though being a child herself and not having much experience, still takes on a role of nurturing the younger one. Obviously this doesn’t apply to all sibling relationships, but I thought it was interesting to think about after watching this.

[@jolie8276]

Love how the younger sister is always facing the side and the bigger facing the front until the end when she passes her the keys, leaving her the one in charge now.

The younger sister is always a step behind, watching big sis--she's always in the stage of life that big sis was in the previous chapter, like when she's wearing the same fur coat and smoking.

This short essentially amplifies the passage of time & how everything inevitably comes to an end. Whether it's childhood, adolescence, youth... a long-awaited holiday, or the time you couldn't wait to spend with a favorite person. One day you wake up & look out the window, realizing it's all ended, everything is suddenly nothing but a distant memory.

[@josettece]

I love how she’s always looking up or at her and then when her sister leaves, she finally looks straight at the camera and herself.

[@lilywhitehouse_]

as a big sister, the motif of sharing things really stuck with me. to progress from sharing a lollipop, to make up, which then progresses to sharing a cigarette on the balcony, to then not even sharing the same space anymore. maybe even one day you won’t share the same surnames. you grow up with a best friend right by your side, until the little things slowly start to collect dust as you become your own individual.

[@1221zzn]

this resonated so much what the heck TT

[@lustrouspinetree9259]

Weirdly enough for me, I interpreted it as the blackhaired girl is the big sister and the blonde is the little sister... i saw it as the big sis is watching little sis grow up and experience different things while she sits comfortably by her side as support. And then at the last part, i saw it as little sis going away for college or something and big sis was left home to look after the parents. She takes lil sister's place because she is kind of like waiting for her to come back home. There is some strong projection going on with me as i watched this LOL...

Yes, me too. I'm autistic and my little sister isn't, which is probably at least part of the reason my younger sister developed faster than me. She made friends faster than I did, she did my make-up and often decided what we were going to play. I often followed my sister (and sometimes my brother) in the things I played and wanted. I also sometimes went to my sister for clothing advice, like "does this look good?". So in our relationship I'm kind of like the little sister. Nowadays I am my own person, I just don't like parties that much and have now found my own friends and things that I like to do. I love my little sister. I still sometimes look up to her.

It's the scene that the youngest looks with so much admiration at the eldest after putting on the makeup for me, that made me tear up. It all just encapsulates sisterhood so well

[@mahamatique2198]

Something about her kissing the younger sister's forehead made me cry. It symbolizes the love and protectiveness we older sisters have for our little ones.

[@marcosilva8174]

I love the use of framing and composition in the film. The bars in the first scene separate the older sister from the younger, perhaps symbolising the perceived difference in thought between the two which is emphasised by the fact that the younger sister stares at the older whilst the older sister sits perpendicular, contemplating to the face of the viewer. Like the younger sister, we question what she is thinking about. The younger sister taking the lollipop which reflects how younger siblings often take after the older in admiration. Perhaps she believes by doing this she will be able to understand her sisters contemplation if she becomes like her. In the second part it again begins with them facing in opposite directions, but we then see the older sister look at her and we again see the the sister face towards her and apply makeup, the lollipop still in the younger sisters mouth reflects how she is always behind her sister despite trying to become more like her. These moments are often brief but beautifully reflect the dynamics between siblings. In postadolesence, the younger sister is no longer wearing the glasses she took off and the older sister changes her hairstyle again. The framing motif returns as we view them through a window, however they are not separated by a physical line. The view of the sisters in the window resembles a polaroid photo capturing an intimate moment in time. The younger sister still faces in a different direction, however she seems less curious about her sister. Her stare suggests a feeling of disconnect or sadness, she began to the realise that she is always following her sisters path, wether the choices are good or bad but she has not reflected on her own individualism and who she truly is as a person. However despite this she takes the cigarette, a marker of the loss of childhood innocence. In each scene they are physically closer but the connection appears to disappear, mirroring a difference in thought. On the wall is a text which reads " 'Im on my way to the future', she said and i said 'but your just sitting there and smiling' and she smiled and said 'its harder than you think with all the noise everyone else is making' " This could be alluding to the thoughts of the younger sister as she chases after her older sisters present. The younger sister feels a sense of escapism when she is with her sister, a place away from the stresses of growing into adulthood. The perspective of time also means that the older sister has been looking at her own future, and the younger sister looks at the older sisters present. The final part "hereafter" combines two states of time, one of the younger sister and one of the older. She hands her the keys to the apartment- the final object. The keys contain handcuffs. The exchange of this indicates how the younger sister is now in charge of her own future, she is liberated from the cycle of following her sister as she leaves her life. The younger sisters stare which once was curious now appears fearful and one of acceptance. We see the older sister kiss her forehead as a final goodbye, they stand the closest they have been the whole movie yet they have become distant as people which polarises the opening scene. We then finally see the younger sister, cigarette in hand, face the camera as she now sees what her sister has being looking at all along. She now sees her own future, not her sisters. (also notice the sticker behind her that says "in due time") I just wanted to say how much i loved this film. As a younger sibling I resonated so much with this film. I found myself always doing what my brother did- if he drew i would start drawing, if he climbed a tree I would climb it too. It always felt that by the time i finally got to his present he had already left that point. When my parents got divorced I saw him less and less and my perspective changed as I had to assimilate my own identity and find who I was as a person. The younger sister wearing the older sisters clothes reminded me of how my entire closet was hand me downs, when he could no longer fit into his shoes they became mine. When he stopped playing with toys I would play with them. My existence for most of my life was my brothers shadow. But eventually the angle of the sun changes, and so does the shadow. It fades. As i stopped dressing like him and stopped thinking like him, I realised how we have become so different as people and how it will never return to what it once was. I now have a complicated relationship with my brother, as I had to endure a lot of difficulties due to him. But I look back at these moments of and I feel like all the stress of my present life leaves. Also the song that plays sounds really similar to house song by Searows which is a song that talks about the longing for something more beyond the confines of ones past. I thought this was an amazing touch to the film. btw this is just my interpretation of the film (might be wrong but this is what i thought about the film) Thank you for this amazing piece of art. :)

[@A_certainUser]

I like how you took your own life and put that into the analysis. I actually agree with it. But as an older sister, I’ve always seen my younger sister (who was considered ‘special’ and a slower developer, mentally.) as immature. We’re twins but I was still born first and without the ‘disabilities’. For as long as I could remember I always saw my sister as an annoying little rat that spent her free time bugging me because she didn’t have a life of her own to live. As stupid at i’m wording it. I felt that this was well portrayed. The older sister only ever looking at the younger sister once per scene. And then leaving. Because despite their differences and growing apart the older sister always loved and helped the younger sister. Despite how the younger sister always admired the older sister the older sister was still a flawed person. But the younger person couldn’t see that given how they admired their older sibling. I felt like it was well portrayed in the smoking scene. The younger sister always trying to be like the older sister. And then I guess when the older sister walks away it’s just as you put it. The younger sister becoming her own person as they drift apart. But as a last sign of care the older sister kisses her younger sibling. I can’t help but relate to this. Though as the older sibling there are days where I can’t wait to finally move on from being with my sister. Every. Day. I guess I’m putting it the same way as you did but in the older siblings perspective. 🤷‍♀️. But hey nice brain of urs with the analysis and stuff!

[@girlsaysstuff]

this felt so intimate. I've done my younger sister's eyeshadow like that and I only know what looks good on her because it looked good on me first. I teared up when she kissed her head, even though I didn't think I was getting emotional. absolutely beautiful work

[@isol7332]

As someone who has an older sister, I was able to understand this movie. First, everything you do becomes one with her, and then when she's gone, you start to question whether everything you do made sense when you were together, or whether this was your own personality. She's very different from you, but someone like you. Saying goodbye removes all anger, and lefts many feelings full of a suitcase. I enjoyed while watching it, keep going on.

[@kseniakirs]

@@xdemidevilx475 I am the child of my father's second marriage, and my stepsister is from the first marriage and is ten years or so older than me. We have different mothers, we have never lived together and only met on holidays or in the summer, when my family and I went to distant relatives on my dad's side. So yeah, we haven't had much contact with each other throughout our lives. However, when I was still a child, not a teenager, she expressed her kindness and genuine interest in me in many different ways. We were somewhat close and she wasn’t really judgemental. And despite this, I constantly thought that she will hate me if we get close, because she is better than me in everything. In addition, different experiences, age difference, different upbringing and the absence of common memories or any connection other than a family one stood between me and her almost an unbreakable wall. Well, it seemed unbreakable for me at least. As a result, I completely closed myself off, cut myself off from her and from other people, and over time we talked less and less, until my sister completely ignored my existence, even if I stood very close to her. She's even trying not to look at me at all now. Because of my stupid negative beliefs about myself and fear of getting close to people, I lost the love of a person I still admire. I don’t know if it’s right to still hold on to the hope of fixing everything. Maybe I'm even idealizing her. But I still want her to look at me with warmth, not like she's annoyed that I still exist. And I especially want this when I see what a warm sisterly relationship others have. Moral of the story: don’t let your worries ruin your relationship with others. Sorry for the long rant.😓 I've just been thinking about her a lot lately and felt the need to talk it out.

So moving. The vibe is so melancholy and gritty, even nostalgic in the way 2000s sadcore films were. As someone who was/is a big sister, and yet due to high-functioning autism matured slower than my younger sisters, it hits even harder, because I feel like I failed them in this exact way, that I couldn't be the guide and leader and hand-up that they needed and deserved.

[@floppa136]

I'm a big sister of 4 siblings and I've always wondered what it was like to have an older sibling. I've always wanted one from a young age, and even hated being the oldest at times. The feeling of having someone to go to for advice, wisdom, and just someone to talk to abt problems they've had at my age. but I've come to the realization even with the struggles that come from being the oldest, i can give my siblings the things I've wanted for myself. and i think that knowing that i can help pave the way for them to lead a happier, and inspired life. Them being inspired by me or even remembering me as someone they could go to for anything is more than enough now. I don't show it a lot to them as i think a lot of older siblings can relate to, but i do really adore my siblings. And although, as all siblings have ups and downs in their lives. I would never wish a world without them.

My oldest sister is and always has been my role model and we have similar personalities while my other big sister is my best friend and someone who I can always count on to be able to talk to. The oldest has already moved out but I still see her at least twice a month and the other one is often hanging out with her partner or at uni so I barely see her. It’s impossible to think that one day I’ll stop seeing either of them at least once a week, that one day we’ll all have jobs and one of us might have our own family and we won’t be each other’s number one priority.

I am only child. I am unable to feel the emotions put through this video but I really love the words it pours out, Its almost as if I have a sister. I have a 12 year old cousin, she isnt my biological sister but it feels as if I have to nurture her and take care of her because of how close we have gotten ever since we were children. I helped her through her fights, we showered together, we made food together, we cleaned the house together and such. Shes growing up faster than me now, skilled in makeup and having a relationship bond with men in her school. I cant even apply lipstick correctly nor socialize with the gender ive been opposing ever since an incident. This video really resonates with me because at times we'd sit quitely together and I'd just watch her on her phone, wondering what the future is for her.

I’ve never had a sister, but this hit home somehow. Beautiful footage, detail, actors, and original film.

The cinematography and visual aspects of these shorts and its meaning is so incredible, the bars at the park devising them, the uncomfortable closeness of the camera at the makeup scene, and how the big sister is always looking sideways, towards her little sister, caring for her, the resemblance between the lollipop stick and the cigarrete, and, how at the end, when the little sister leaves, ist finally the time where the big sister looks to the front, not having someone to care for.

I have a big sister, but ive never had a relationship with her to be honest, i haven't even talked to her in 5 or 6 years. So at first when i watched this i thought i didn't feel anything from it, but that's when it hit me that i felt emptiness like something was missing. I wish i could've had a good relationship with my older siblings, not even just my big sister. I don't even care if they had taught me bad habits, i just wish we could've had something. I wish that i could've looked up to someone, instead of taking care of and parenting everyone around me my entire childhood.

The shots where both of them were together with the progression was stunning! Amazing job man, would watch a movie from you!!!

the sharing, the care, the influence and impact of an older sister is unnoticiable yet palpable. i feel that us as the elders are most aware and reminded of. until we are grown up and apart, the bond is loosened and the tortch is passed. unfortunatly i failed my little sister and this vid was a sudden reminder of how much i had impacted her in some subconcious way. i hope she's doing well. i still miss her
