[@6ixConfessions]

@@kieranshaw9596 or it was a metaphor for the human condition & our relationships & the way each of us understands them & the things we need to take from them. All too often, if we don't understand something or we don't understand those that we love, we distrust the relationship & set about to sabotage it on a sub-conscious level but all we succeed in doing is risking losing sight of the person we once were in the process. If we're lucky, some will redeem themselves before it's too late. The alien was the relationship these two had. A t least that's my take on it Good film.

I feel like I was accidentally this alien once... lol I was riding my motorcycle in the middle of the night, and found a nice bench and sat to chill and enjoy the nice weather and view. Eventually after about an hour lost in thought, a police car came by... apparently the old folks across the road were debating and arguing the whole time if I was a burglar or murderer, or out of gas, or needed help or was just sitting... I just explained that my dog died a week before and I was just sad and didn't want to be at home. The lady who called the cops felt so bad that she made me tea and came and sat with me with her cat for a while. Maybe our big metal boy lost his space doggo and he's just sad and didn't want to be at home... maybe he just needed a change of view.

[@12227UserName]

If you watched the entire thing, she clearly states that "something of a metaphor" got in between their relationship. Her analysis of the creature throughout the short film is really her analysis of him given that she's a psychologist. Everything else, specifically the detailing of the creature, is entirely made up in his head. The creature being alone, wandering and quiet, is a metaphor for the man's condition. That's why he wanders to the beach routinely, as the creature does, staring in the distance. And when she details the alien's moving patterns, it intently shows the man in the opening shots getting on a bus, as we're actually following his moving pattern. The man also refers to the alien as not fullfilling anyone's 'fantasies.' There's this perceived notion around mental illness that people who suffer from it are a threat to society hence why the alien is perceived as a threat initially. Furthermore, they make it fairly clear that the guy sees patterns that don't exist. And he becomes almost in a trance when listening to the frequency. These are all signs of psychoses. That scene referenced of the object out in space near the end of the credits could be interpreted as the man finally coming back to his senses when he realizes what he's been missing (as the alien is finally coming back to its home). Or perhaps it could be interpreted that the man is completely lost, fully embracing his delusion. Point being, this entire short was a metaphor.

[@GeeTrieste]

Very interesting interpretation. The last scene was much telling to this. She drives to the beach, and calls to him, and the alien is no longer there in an instant. But is he a researcher? What of the oscilloscope, and what of the army guy?

[@nicoinformatics]

@@GeeTrieste It's actually pretty clear in the short film, if you rewatch it you might notice the hints here and there. The oscilloscope scene was just his imagination, as the woman stated "he's seeing patterns that isn't there", she refers to the guy making up stuff, there was no pattern, there was no alien, it's all in his imagination. As for the army guy, it's also hinted a few times, for instance the army guy mentioned him as "this is a threat in a major downtown area" and that "there's nothing we can do about it", the army guy was referring to the guy broadcasting SOS signals as a part of his daily routine (9:40) scene, it is a dangerous thing to do, but the 'officials' can't do anything because what can they do? arrest him? the media would go nuts and just assumed that the guy knows something thus the send for help broadcast was warranted.

[@katawa5268]

[@jessicachernak8699]

So this guy is a sci fi writer that gets so engrossed in writing his new novel that he pushes his wife away in the struggle to make the story come together. That's what I saw. He imagines this alien comes to earth, he even says "imagine" in the opening. He calls himself a researcher but he has a nametag that says colossal division (it may just be a coincidence not sure how old this movie is but colossal is a Russian movie about a girl who is somehow linked to a gigantic creature that attacks Seoul 2016/17). Anyway he has a literal storyboard behind him with his ideas on it. Childhoods End is a nod to Arthur C Clarke and his sci fi featuring the overlords that come from space. There is a pic of Andre the Giant and another pic of Shepard Faireys' earth crisis whose artwork focuses on phenomenology (to reawaken ones sense of wonder and stimulate curiosity), including Obey Giant which is artwork fashioned after street art using Andre the Giant. There is a clipping about a wind farm and we see a shot of the giant walking through one probably for scale referencing. Several books of poetry, Poetique Du Disastre by Boudelaire, Walt Whitmans Leaves of Grass. A Japanese translation book behind him, home of Godzilla.... In the beginning he is writing and stating his "job" there seems to be a bustling office behind him which never comes up again because they are part of the fantasy he is concocting as he begins his tale which starts off with specifics (the backstory if you will, the who, the what, the how etc and than slowly building to the more existential twisty bits of a good storyline which of course by the end includes flashbacks). Gus Wilson is a complete fabrication meant to illicit the fear of the unknown and the violent tendencies of human nature, if you notice at 10:30 or thereabouts Gus is sleeping on the bus that he takes out to the beach. One Wilshire is pretty prominent again possibly for scale but also because of the significance of this building which has housed some of the biggest business and tech giants like Google, Amazon, Verizon, and rerouted internet for Taiwan after the earthquakes of 2006 which destroyed underwater cables in the pacific. You know, where they filmed Godzilla vs King Kong. There are several spiritualistic pieces here one being the card behind his desk that is like a mantra of sorts about harmonizing the body and spirit, also when he wakes up there is a book on tarot cards and a handful of assorted stones or crystals on the nightstand, He also has matches and in a few shots there is a pipe probably thinking weed or "incense" whatever. For people who say the design of this thing is odd look at 5:30 it almost looks like an elephant moving through the trees the largest land mammal on earth. Then again maybe I just see patterns everywhere.

I think you are right, the creature was never there. It was just a metaphor for what divided the couple, his aspirations, nothing tangible..

I found the world building in this to be better than many 2 hour drudge fests that leave you wanting. Childhood's end is one my favorite reads as is most of what Arthur C Clarke has written so it stood out immediately as it to is about alien beings that come to watch us, they are benign and simply observe. This has an effect on humanity nonetheless and shapes our behavior without any intervention positive or negative on the aliens part. Sound familiar?

Could you explain more of your impression of what this story was about. There was something very sad, and made me feel like the alien was a lonely soul in the universe as though it was a metaphor for the guy. Also, it was fascinating to hear about a being who did not destroy anything or anyone but neither helped anything or anyone as they usually alien stories. I sometimes feel like that is what I am a creature that wants purpose but have none or cannot find my reason for existence but I hurt no one and I help no one either. Just exist, and often stare off into space or the ocean searching for something in my mind that I cannot find.

I see three possible interpretations: 1. The alien was real, but when it left, the guy couldn't let go of the idea of it, and it broke up his relationship with the woman. This is supported by the shots of the extra aliens showing up (apparently to help the original one, at which point he would theoretically leave), leaving the man without his sense of purpose or any meaningful answers. The last shot of him seeing the alien, and the woman not seeing it, shows his inability to let go of something that meant something to him, even if he couldn't explain it. 2. The alien was never real, and the guy is insane. The woman is only describing the relationship she had with the crazy guy, and the Army guy is just some shmoe on a bus that the crazy guy fantasizes is his human 'antagonist'. This is supported by the idea that the Head Researcher for Homeland Security would not be riding public transportation, crazy guy's statement that the alien didn't really change human existence (because it wasn't really here), at the end his office does not appear to really be in a government building, and of course, when he sees the alien, she doesn't. 3. I am drunk. Each seems easily - and perhaps, equally - plausible... :)

SPOILERS At the first viewing, I really thought this film was all that it was showing, about an alien robot. And I gave it a 9 nevertheless, because even though it was just that, the concept and the cinematography was brilliant. But at the second viewing when I wanted to show it to my friends, I realized the last scene. And went back and watched it again, and a third time with my wife, and a fourth time. So I can say with absolute confidence this is actually something much different, with clues given all throughout the film. If you haven't watched it, don't read on because it contains major spoilers. SPOILERS - . . . . . 1) There is no alien robot. It's the guy's imagination. That is for certain. Here are just a few clues: * At the end where the robot vanishes was the first clue for me, which made me go back and watch again. * The picture of the alien at his back, at one close-up scene you'll realize it's from a sci-fi magazine. So he probably saw it and imagined the whole thing. * The fact that we see towards the end, that his "office" is actually an abandoned warehouse. * In the beginning he says "everyone thought it was a comet" Well, it actually WAS a comet. * All the things the psychologist woman saying about out inner thoughts surfacing. * What happened to the 5-6 other aliens which came? Nothing because they didn't exist either. * All throughout the film, you actually see the guy is a little crazy. * They ask the woman "what happened?" And she says "something metaphorical came between us" 2) The woman is actually talking about the man who went crazy. She's not talking about an alien or something. 3) For the military man, I have 2 ideas. He's the guy in the bus which the crazy guy takes everyday to go to the beach. So either the crazy guy saw him and imagined him to be the retired defence secretary, or he actually is a retired defense secretary who thinks this lunatic who "keeps on telling everyone that there's an alien" is a threat. Since he's retired, he doesn't have anything better to do so he follows him everyday to check if he's a potential threat. There are lots of more details in every scene which I didn't write here, and probably even more which I missed. After all, this is the only short film, along with "Unedited Footage of a Bear" that I gave 10 out of 10. Because this is how a short film is supposed to be. It would be worse if it was a feature length movie.

The alien was real. The second wave was real. They took him home, or killed him and left. Raymond couldn't cope and had a mental breakdown, eventually losing his girlfriend, and his job. "It was indescribable. Absolutely extraordinary. A wonder. The only word to describe it was spiritual." The alien became his God, so to speak. Proof of something more, something amazing. After it left, he couldn't just deal with going back to normal. For more evidence, watch the after credits scene. Yes, there is an after credits scene. You're welcome.

[@ServalShots]

I think this is the most likely explanation of the story. He really was what he said he was and he studied the creature for some time but it left one day whether peacefully or not it isn't here anymore and now he is reeling with this loss. Of course there were consequences and I think you put it adequately that the loss of this creature was a spiritual loss to himself, one that caused rifts between his love and perhaps supplanted his original love with his new love and fondness for this creature. Either way this is a wonderfully crafted story and honestly jealous of the level of writing behind this. I thought I was a good writer but this makes me look like I know nothing of the art we call writing.

Multilayered, multifaceted film. There are lots of different angles from which one can look at what's being told and ways of possible interpretation. The cinematography is amazing and totally in line with the different layers of the story. It reminds me of several threads that are interwoven and form the fabric of this short film. The acting and capturing of some rather elusive (micro)expressions, especially of the character Raymond Davis, are stunning. Like a glimpse into humans' individual and collective subconscious. Foreign and intimately relatable at the same time.

This is nice, and really well written. I like that the revelation that the giant alien robot is a metaphor for the man's mental illness is revealed visually and isn't specifically spelled out for us in dialog. When I realized that the "he" the psychologist (and the DOD guy) was talking about was Raymond, her former boyfriend, and not the robot alien, I knew I had to go back and rewatch it. In simplest form, the alien robot doesn't exist, except in Raymond's mind. Dr. Field and Col. Wilson represent the two reactions to his benign mental illness -- sympathy and hostility. Everything Dr. Field and Col. Wilson say about "him" is about Raymond.

[@DigitalKnight]

The beginning quote "The fault lies not in our stars, but in ourselves" sets the tone perfectly. This is a film about depression and how he bonds with these imaginary beings and not with the world around him who have tried to cause him so much pain. The psychologist is not talking through the film about the alien since this is a projection from him, she is talking about her boyfriend and that she cannot reach him. He is lonely etc He exists in this little world because it's safer. It's a nice little film so now watch it again with this knowledge in mind.

[@paolotorres7995]

My own interpretation about the film. The scientist guy: He was the alien. The big goofy alien is not exactly a mere imagination but a representation of himself. He was treated as if he was different from the society. Little do they know is that he is trying to understand something. Idk but he kinda gives signs of autism at some points (i.e. his avid interest in following patterns). Even if he is in a passive state, he still suffers hardships in his quest for truth. That's why he is calling for help (morse code sos). Yet no one could understand him but his wife. Psychologist wife: She was the only one who could understand the guy. She contradicted the judgments of the people who cannot understand him fully. She loves him unconditionally and finds interest in the guy's thoughts. Surely, a lot of girls likes mysterious guys haha. The retired soldier: He is the representation of xenophobia or fear of the unknown. A lot of people would be afraid of the scientist because he isn't like them. Because of this, they think that he's not normal. In our society, if you don't conform then there's a high probability that u wouldn't be accepted by the majority. My other realizations: 1)The people of the society is the city itself in this film. Even though they couldn't understand the guy, they learned to live with him being contented with the realization that they could never understand him and it's okay as long as he's harmless. 2) The guy is clearly isn't a savior nor a destroyer, at least not yet. As of right now, he is merely an observer still trying to determine his place in the world.

The short film is about understanding those suffering with mental illness and the stigma behind it. Raymond Davis is imagining this "alien", and it is all in his head, however, he could be using this to describe himself. The short starts with him saying "People don't understand what he really is. They have no imagination"**. We now enter his mind, as he explains the story of the visitor. He truly believes everything he is saying, and so does the viewer since that is all we hear. We are then introduced to Dr. Emily Field, a psychologist, who we assume is talking about the alien, but she never mentioned it. She also uses the pronoun "he" for the alien. Next, we meet Colonel Gus Wilson, who believes that the alien is a threat and is dangerous to those in the city. He also uses the pronoun "he" for the alien, but occasionally says "it", which Raymond also does**. After more discussion about the alien from all characters, the film begins to take a turn at 8:48. We now have left Raymond Davis' imagination or mind. Dr.Field talks about apophenia, which is the tendency to see patterns in everyday things and make unrelated connections. We see Raymond a bit different now, as what she is saying is seeming to describe him. Colonel Wilson talks about Raymond's findings about the "The second wave" code which seems to be a distress call. He responds to this by saying broadcasting distress advertises your defencelessness**. And the very next scene is Dr.Field saying she "tries to understand him", and we are not sure if she is referring to the alien or Raymond himself. At 10:30, we see "Colonel" Gus Wilson sleeping on a bus next to Raymond , and he is not dressed up as we seen him in the interview , he seems like just a normal person**. At 10:46, Dr.Field talks about the human mind and uses a specific word at 11:04 to help her description. We can also see in these scenes that she had a relationship with Raymond, helping the viewer somewhat confirm that she was talking about him this whole time. She drives to the beach and see him standing there all alone. Raymond Davis possibly has schizophrenia and has created this alien to describe how he feels he is in society. I believe he doesn't know that this alien is only a figment of his imagination, but he understands that he has a connection to it. The character Colonel Gus Wilson is also apart of Raymond's imagination, and was created to represent those in society who stigmatize people suffering with mental illness. Dr. Emily Fields is analyzing how her former partner might be feeling but will not understand what he is going through or his distress call. There is so much more to cover but it would take a while. Another interesting point to make is that after 8:48, shots of the alien are seen only when Raymond Davis is talking about it, but when the other characters are talking we see shots of Raymond Davis.

[@MightyCatss]

Raymond looks at the beach at 12:13 , has a shot of him over the skyline at 9:36 and 12:20, and does the waltz at 12:26 similar to the descriptions of the alien and his routine.

No kidding brother. As I was watching this the alien reminded me so much of my son. He is non verbal and has autism spectrum disorder. When he walks around he is really careful not to step on any thing not even a little yard flower and his favorite thing to do is play in water. You can always tell there is so much going on in his mind but he has no way of telling anyone. But my belief is people like him are the only ones who know true happiness. He dont have the worries or stress of life that a lot of us do like paying bills, getting to work on time, ect. He is just happy and that's living life.

Maybe the creature is from another world here on vacation. He probably heard of our planet and heard that humans are strange and wanted to see for himself. We visit other countries on vacation that we sometimes find strange and want to see for ourselves. You have to admit humans do have strange and curious habits. Maybe, he is like a curious child visiting a park or zoo. The other creatures are probably his family telling him it is time to go home. He probably told them he wanted to stay a little longer. They told him ok. He finally went home. They had an original series of Star Trek where an alien being of immense power captured members of the Enterprise crew for amusement. They thought the alien was going to hurt or kill them. It turns out the alien was a bored child looking for someone to play with. Like a child playing outside with bugs. When his parents find out what he was doing, they put a stop to the it and told him it is time to go home. The parents actually apologized and asked the crew if they are hurt. The crew said no. The parents and the alien child than left. The crew was left with a surprised look.

Based on my own Interpration and other comments I’ve come to the best conclusion. The main man is a sci-fi writer and illegal immigrant. The lover, woman, was talking about him the whole time. The DOD army guy is also talking about him as a human being a threat to US citizens. The whole time the Alien never existed. It was the protagonist’s story. He eventually got engrossed in it and his relationship crumbled. Now rewatch it and listen to the woman and DOD guy again and you’ll see they’re talking about the man.

[@voninfj7024]

*SPOILERS* The alien isn't really there but he represents Dr. Davis. The alien traveling thru space is Dr. Davis going through life. Dr. Davis' travels (life experiences) don't go the way he plans and he crashes (as we all do at various times in life). He is going through depression and wandering aimlessly through life just waiting for things to happen to help get him back on track. He's lost in life and sends out an S.O.S. His girlfriend sees what he's going through, sees his S.O.S. and finds him at the beach, ready to help him get back on track. Also on the beach, Dr. Davis leans on the alien because he is the only one that understands him; once again, the alien represents Dr. Davis. We all have drama and life issues and at times we think that the only person that understands what we are going through is "ourselves". Also notice that the alien isn't on the beach when we see the point of view from the girlfriend. So the craft at the end of the credits flying through space represents Dr. Davis getting his life back on track after getting the help that was needed.

Wow ! mind blowing, breath taking! no need for me to interpretate or to understand all the metaphors, the outside or the inside... you've blown me away. with everything. the actors in my opinion were amazing, added so much honesty and true raw feelings. and the ending scene ,the script, the amount of emotions, with the M83 masterpiece ..... I just wished it to be a two hours movie. thank you so much for this short but amazing journey !
