I love and hate this. I love this because it’s adorable and I hate it because I can almost relate to it. My grandmother had Alzheimer’s before she passed. She suffered from it for over 20 years before passing away, and she lived in another country. I never really got to see her or talk to her much, I didn’t get photos with her, nor do I have many memories of her. I’m glad this little kid got to experience his grandfather and got to help him a little with the memory loss and such. Losing my grandmother hit me hard, because I never really got to know her, which as I got older, became more of my own fault. This animation is beautiful and it made me cry watching it, especially when the man got up to go to the door because when I was younger and my grandmother came to visit, she did the same, so I forced myself to stay awake all night, just so she wouldn’t leave the house confused. I miss her very much, and I’m happy the little boy, even though he's a cartoon, got good memories with his grandfather.

As a granddaughter I felt this so deeply, I was sobbing as I was watching this. My grandpa passed away in our house last summer, he was one of my friends, my partner in crime, a father figure and he had a faith in me like no one else. He was ready to go for a while but still miss him and I would do anything for one last hug or one last conversation with him. I know he’s looking after me and that gives me comfort. Sending everyone who’s lost someone much love!!

My grandmother suffered from Alzheimer the last 2 years of her life. She was only able to remember her youth... she forgot her husband her two boys (my father and uncle) and all nephews including me... I was only 12 at that time. My father will try hard with photos, stories, and songs to recover her memory but was practically impossible. Instead, her brain created another reality. She will continue repeating that her husband left her and she was going to commit suicide by jumping from the bridge but that day a woman (my mom) stopped her and invited her to live with us. So until the last day, my grandma keeps kissing the hands of my mom and blessing her husband (my dad, her son) for saving her life and inviting her to live together at our (her) home. Big hug grandma, where ever you are! ❤️

This brought me to tears. I know we all had loved ones who passed away and it can hurt to sometimes remember that. My grandpa passed away far before his time. He was in a hospital for a quick surgery that shouldn't have caused any problems but he got infected with sepsis and didn't make it. I was a 13 year old depressed kid then and my mom didn't let me see him cause of the state he was in, however I did manage to see him once when he was being rushed into another surgery. I miss him so much, he was such a kind person. I'd visit him so often in my childhood, he and grandma practically raised me along side my parents. He was always a happy guy, before he went into the hospital my mom told him to hang in there and he grabbed a pole and said not to worry he's hanging on in an attempt to make us less worried. Till his last moments he was a positive soul. Nine years have passed since and I'm still touched by videos such as these. I miss him, a lot.

Grandparents are the worst in the sense that hypothetically and generally speaking, they’ll go before you do. And when you have the good ones it’s quite literally experiencing a person’s presence who had a lifetime to learn to love. Then boom. Gone. This is a cute film though. All the memories we will just have to hold on too, pretty but sad thing to think about.

I've never had the opportunity to experience what having a grandfather is, my grandfather (my father side) died ages ago when i wasn't born, but when i was 6-7 i still had my grandfather (my mother's side). I remember he was the sweetest person i had in my life, and always called me and my sister "gemelline" which is twins in italian but in a different way and he used to forget everything and always wanted to see me, my sister and my mother but sadly he wasn't feeling well and went to an hospital but the doctors weren't good and accidentally made a mistake with his operation that killed him. My grandma called my brother and told us that my grandpa was sleeping deeply, and that moment we all knew he was dying. This movie made me cry because i really wish i could have helped my grandpa this way and how much i wanted to spend more time with him. Thank you for bringing me the happy memories!

This wonderful animation reminded me immediately of my own father who came to live with me and my family when my mother passed away. He was suffering from early stage dementia and could not live own his own, no matter how much he wanted to. He was sad and depressed after losing his wife of 65 years, as we all were, but he gradually got used to the new experience of another family, along with all that goes with it, and started to enjoy all the attention from everyone, particularly all the grandchildren,and great grandchildren that visited him almost daily. We eventually had to put him into care, but his health was failing, and he passed away at the age of 92 years. Of course we all miss him, but the little boy in this animation reminds me so much of the desolation that the whole family felt at his passing. I am so glad that I watched this, and although it made me sad, it also made feel happy for that little boy, who found a way to remember his grandpa. Well done to all who were involved in the production of this beautiful little film.

[@brandonfazbear4219]

Seeing the grandfather pass away makes me think of my Papa, my Dad's father. My Papa was a man that we all loved. He was funny and loving. He was an outgoing man and a hard worker. He was supportive and made people smile when he was around. And if he and his good friend were playing a board game, they would argue but he says that they are just "discussing" but we all know he's just arguing so we make jokes about it. He snores very loud and has funny sneezes and can sneeze so loud normally that you can be outside and you can still hear him inside. He passed away when I was early in High School a around 4 to 6 years ago from showing me how to use the snow blower but slipped on the icy road when he went further out last the driveway and his head banged on the ice and the snowblower tipped over on him and I had to tip it back up and help him up. His apparently started to bleed and was forced to go into the hospital where we learned that he had brain damage from falling on the ice and was going through recovery for months and had to relearn how to eat, speak, and walk. At least he remembered us which was the best thing. He was making a good recovery until around the beginning of May when my family went to go see him but was gone and my Nana was rushing to a bigger Hospital where immediate care is. We knew something bad happened. The damage began to spread to the rest of his brain at an alarming rate and it was too much. It was time we had to let him go and pass on. It was for the best. We didn't want to have him go through any more pain and I hope that he is fine in Heaven now with no pain. I miss him still. Life isn't the same without him and we all miss him and things like what this video showed triggers these memories of mine and it gives many mixed emotions even after all these years. I'm scared when I lose other family members, friends, and loved ones like the church family from the church I used to go to before they moved away. I'm a person who is really attached to friends and family and can get really lonely when I'm not with them and it gives me stress thinking about when the time comes because I don't want to be alone..... I'm sorry for going this deep....

I was 6 years old at that time. I moved to the city with my mom and a year later he passed away due to stroke. I remember my aunt telling us, that in his deathbed he was looking for me 😢. I did not want to skip classes and unfortunately he died without me even saying my last goodbye.

[@elijahcriszelpaminiano8349]

What I know is that he’s in heaven now watching over us and I am forever grateful for his love, care and sacrifice. I love u Tay 🥹🤍

Animação linda e extremamente tocante, tenho uma vó que tem Alzheimer e vem sendo extremamente difícil lidar com todo esse processo e ver uma pessoa incrível perder algumas memórias. É sempre uma vitória e até emocionante quando vejo ela lembrar de certos acontecimentos e compartilhar parte da sua história, do jeitinho dela. Essa animação é muito tocante por mostrar o poder das memórias e como elas representam nossas vivências e nosso lugar no mundo, obrigado Miralumo Films!

[@LeprechaunHistorico]

É magnífico, sou de Curitiba e vi pelo jornal hoje, é tão belo o estilo, e a história é muito simpatizante além do que ela nos faz rir e chorar e é isso que a torna tão boa! Parabéns pelo trabalho que foi muito, imagino, Deus os abençoe...que continuem com esse trabalho

Os cabelos, o noticiário, e o desenho tosco das lembranças merecem todos os prêmios! 😃😄😁🥰😍

[@MajesticChoiSan]

I showed this to my kids in class today and they all reacted well to it!! I love how feelings were conveyed without the need for words!!

[@agastyasharma8799]

My teacher also showed us this

[@fatymabaloch9411]

Which grade? Can I show it to my 1st graders?

[@MajesticChoiSan]

@@fatymabaloch9411 It should be fine as my kids are 2nd graders. Maybe you could try stopping it every now and then, to explain. Enjoy.

É inacreditável que não tenha ficado entre os finalistas ao GP do Cinema Brasileiro deste ano. Vou além: poderia tranquilamente estar entre os indicados ao Oscar!

[@StellaWatson-o5f]

What a beautiful & moving film, it did more in 15 minutes than most feature films can accomplish in ten times that amount of time. Simple, moving, emotional with not a second of screen time wasted. Kudos to all involved, this really is an astounding achievement

[@harshlahoti8368]

For those looking for an english comment, here it is, you dont need language to understand this amazing story, brilliant movie!

[@Ajay_CHAUHAN929]

[@betterperson3053]

Wow ...how the moments we lived one day becomes a memory . It's so nostalgic feeling when u remember all those memories when u see these kind of videoes I still remember how my nanu(grandfather) enjoys the every happy moment with me and cherishes it.I know those days (vacations)which makes me happy thinking about it. The phase was saddest when he forgot me but I know in his heart I always lived .Now it's around seven months after his deceased. U will always remembered by us❤.

[@henrydenner5448]

There is so much more depth and emotional power and heartfelt content in these wordless animated movies than in normal movies. Beautiful work. 😍

[@bubble-thea1159]

[@giovannakbramos8999]

Irei guardar essa animação no coração ♥️ queria ter tido mais tempo com meu avô, mas eu tenho certeza que as memórias que vivemos e criamos, sempre estarão comigo, aonde quer que ele esteja! 🌟

[@sumitsoni7049]

That was the true story of an every grandpa and her grand son i will love it love you dadu ❤❤..... we miss you

[@foodlover3129]

When getting too old, family members keep wondering a question "when you die?"

[@LindaSChastain]

My Daddy died from Alzheimer's which he had for 20 years. I miss him but know we'll be together with our heavenly Father God one day. Thank-you for a sweet memory although it's difficult to see through my tears. I love you in Christ. Warmest hugs from northern California.

[@ophi.das.official]

Such a coincidence that my 94 years old grandma passed away day before yesterday and today KZbin recommended it. Hits hard.

[@renilsoribeiro3097]

My feelings for your loss. So youtube was a blessing.

[@lotusthewaterlily4306]

Hello! I volunteered at an elderly home for a little more then a year and recently got a paid job at another elderly home. This is an amazing short film it really puts the emotion and real life settings into motion. For the record I’m 21 and I have struggled with memory loss for years so it’s easier to understand them forgetting things than it is for others. The end of the film made me cry because my family just lost our grandpa on mom’s side of the family so we are still dealing with the sadness as well.

[@chetnachaudhary7618]

This is impressive how this short film expresses feelings and emotions without any dialogue...

[@dianazelaya3832]

In my opinion, it is a very good short film because you can learn to give value to your family and accept that we are all growing up. The animation is fantastic because it makes you emphasize with the reality presented.

[@kimchow6918]

Awwwwww! What a beautiful short film!! Sad, sweet and beautiful at the same time.

[@katemorris1620]

Que delicadeza... Parabéns ao conterrâneo pelo belíssimo trabalho. Que coisa maravilhosa!

[@valerielee5053]

Very touching, beautiful. The joy of loving and caring for our parents and grandparents is essential to a full life.

[@Arshii0415]

Memories never fade. Stucked with my grandpa's thoughts. He is theirreplaceable person of my life today & forever. Missing him so much now after the film😢

[@anothergirrrl6636]

É incrível como a arte consegue alcançar áreas do nosso cérebro que nem conheciamos. A arte é uma forma de expressão e sempre possue uma história 🤕

[@chickenchicken123]

I watched this on my lunch break at work... I am now crying. ❤ It's my Grandpa's birthday today too, I lost him in Feb this year. But he's happy with my Grandma now ❤

[@hamzahaider9567]

The best part about this is that it strikes deep into your heart without a word being uttered

[@vicentanilo8091]

❤❤❤ así es,

[@islaygould]

This really hit the feels. So much emotion presented in such a beautiful and creative short film. Had us bawling like babies

[@EstherHunt-p6d]

I'm 20 and losing my grandpa to dementia. I went to visit him for what I know will probably be the last time last December. At times he didn't know who I was but even with that pain those moments with him were beautiful. I have problems with memory myself due to trauma but I hope I will always remember the good ole' Grandpa I love

[@glendaleao676]

Lindo e emocionante!! Assisti com minha filha... Amamos e choramos... Parabéns !!

[@ajrsalazar6282]

I cried out of jealousy because i never felt the experience of having a grandparent by my side when they're still alive. I'm so jealous of you guys. 😭

[@valentinahernandez7291]

Same. I never got to meet any of my grandparents.

[@michellehayasaka961]

Inacreditável como um curta pode provocar um turbilhão de emoções, parabéns a todos os envolvidos! Ainda tenho meus dois avós, mas pensar que um dia eles não estarão mais neste plano é muito triste... Em casa temos vários álbuns de fotos e cada uma delas me faz lembrar da minha vida com eles, o que é muito gratificante. Esse curta me fez refletir que independente da perda, eles (os avós) sempre estarão vivos em nossas melhores e felizes memória. (e sim, enquanto eu escrevo, estou chorando sem parar hahaha)

[@randomchocolateenjoyer5393]

I lost both my grandfathers at a younger age. While I am glad I didn't have to experience the pain of them forgetting, I wish they could've lived to see me grow up and graduate, and make something of myself one day. They'll never get to see it.
