An **Award-Winning** Sci-Fi Short Film: "The Space Between Us" | TheCGBros

[@jefferylegere]

This is an amazingly well done story of how even in a post climate catastrophe world it still sucks to be the cleaning lady.

[@Heedfulconch3]

Looking at the symbolism at the end there, where she took off her mask It dawned on me that we were seeing a less Human version of the Janitor for most of the film. She was wearing a mask that enabled her to live, but dehumanised her like it did the soldier she killed, the colonel and everyone else When she removed her mask, she became fully Human in both our eyes and Adam's. She assumedly dies with a creature that she saved, not as one of the many people in that base, but as a Human. It's about the concept of Humanity, Compassion, Empathy and the overwhelming desire to act upon them in many people. Absolutely beautiful

[@gregorylagrange]

Listen to opening dialogue and the shot of the poster on the elevator wall. Hints that she may have gotten gills and doesn't die, but in fact she can breathe. So while she won't be able to live done there with the creature, she does share something with him. So she's connected but not of it. So you get the space between them. That ties into the title.

[@corykent7]

.....right, but it didn’t show them doing it! Lame....

[@techpriest6962]

Hahaha... Being human isn’t changed by the fact we use tools. Tools are an extension of our humanity, it is what allows us to thrive. To think something designed by humans makes us less human it contrived utopianism founded on ridiculous notions.

[@Heedfulconch3]

@@techpriest6962 I think what I was positing was the idea of purity, less about what is more human or less human, or even just Human from a psychological perspective Obviously the tools don't physically make her less Human, just symbolically more like the people around her. In the base with the mask, she is a worker. In the deep with Adam, she is her own self with him

[@kipthecourtjester]

Fantastic. She was hiding the fact she could breathe water and Air. She must have been one of the last experiments with gills. Not positive why she was still up on Beacon, except she had no idea there were mutants and a civilization down below. What a great film. I think the premise good enough for a full length feature!

[@hOurworld11]

She was not afraid & gave her life to save another. Beauty of Love & Care

[@zainabmejja9936]

Beautiful, as always. Although I hate the way they usually leave us hanging! So I decided to continue the story... When Eve removed her mask, which connected her to the oxygen tank, she finally embraced her father's side. She removed the scarf around her neck and let her gills show. She could breath under water. "You know you're the only one alive who has ever seen them," Eve told Adam, who couldn't stop looking at her neck, and her eyes. "But how?" He asked, still in shock. "My dad... Wait, you speak English?!" Turns out Eve's mother used to be a deep sea diver who spent most of her life in the sea- on her boat, and half of it in the sea. She was a collector of precious sea-stones. One day her leg got stuck and she couldn't swim back up, and after an hour of struggling, she fainted. Next day, she woke up in her boat. Someone had saved her. But there were no signs of any person, and she was miles and miles away from land. She was too weak to fish for her food, but a day later, she woke up to find all kinds of fish and crustacean at the corner of her boat. This happened the next day, and the next, and the next. A week later, she stayed up all night, hidden, wanting to find out who saved her life and kept feeding her. That's when she met Soul. A fishan. They swam together a lot. And she thought he was the kindest of beings. He thought she was the most beautiful. It didn't take long, they got attached, feelings got involved, so did their bodies. Eve was born 25 years ago on that same boat. She loved water, a lot. Her gills would come out from her neck and waist every time she felt so much, or any time she was under water longer than her lungs could allow. Her morning swim with her dad now just a memory. Sometimes she wondered if it really ever happened. But her mother got really sick when she was 15. They had to go back to land. She died in the hospital. The hospital which had an undergound lab, where Eve kept being assigned to clean. Before she died, Eve's mother made her daughter promise her that she'll never go back to the sea. The Fishan Cheiftan had found out about her, and wanted to kill her, and prevent the humans from ever finding out about her- a halfling. She was too young to live in the boat alone anyway. So she stayed. Eve started working at the hospital in exchange for food and a place to sleep. She never made friends, or dated, never let anyone too close because of the fear that her gills would come out when she was too angry, or too happy, or too sad, or too aroused. She kept to herself, and didn't do much other than live, work, and breath. Until Adam. "Wow. Well, that explains a lot." Adam replied after a moment of silence. "You have to come with me." "No, I can't. It's not safe. Nowhere is safe for me..." Eve softly said. She needed to find a place to hide. A new place on earth, a new identity, a new life. "No, you'll be safe. Nothing bad will happen to you down here. Come with me." Adam insisted. He took her hand and started pulling her with him. "Stop! How do you know that?? You can't help me, no one can, but myself. You need to let me go, I need to find my way back... Wait, you didn't tell me how you can speak my language. My mother told me your species speaks something else." "Yeah, we do. Well, most of us at least." "So how comes you can speak English? You were only in the tank for 5 days!" "Our new Chieftan taught me. He's my neighbour." "Oh. He can understand and speak English? My mom never told me that some of you cou..." Eve stopped mid-sentence. It couldn't be. "What's your new Chieftan called?" She held her breath, almost knowing what will come next. "Soul. He's called Soul." Adam responded. THE END.

[@ChildOfKingJesus57]

What a wonderful film; I loved it! I believe she had gills; but the bad air quality was such that even if you had gills, you wouldn't want to be breathing the deadly air. The mask she wore looked like oxygen; that's why the evil man said, "why is she wasting the oxygen?"He believing she unworthy of oxygen. The mask was to help filter the air; because it's so polluted. She had her neck covered with a scarf to hide the gills.. There was no oxygen tank attached, I was just wondering why she would be working on the polluted surface, when she could live below. But then maybe she had it done a long time ago as a child. The posters were old, and getting gills had been done for years. But no longer done as it was in the past, the experts are gone.. She is poor, but unsure about living in the ocean. Most of the population is gone, and so is the expertise to get gills. Then they find Adam and the fat rich man plans to take his. It looks like they had been taking many, probably for other rich people who could afford it. As we could see the bloody mess left behind. These operations are done carelessly and in dirty conditions. You can see there were other dirty tanks that were used in the past, in the room. She decides to rescue the ocean man Adam, she knew she had to make a decision to either stay there and watch them kill another, or push him off into the ocean and she fall with him. She rescues him and goes in with him. When finally in the ocean, she looks around and sees the wondrous beauty, as she slowly sinks! She is amazed and awe struck, because she had never seen the ocean before. He, Adam saved her from sinking to low and brought her up higher. She removed the mask to let him know she too could breath.It's a happy ending!

[@ChildOfKingJesus57]

Gee Tee, Do really not see that this man was portrayed as someone who thought this woman, a fellow human being breathing the air, (a necessity to live), was a waste of air, was written to look like an evil uncaring person with no empathy. And those are textbook attributes of a psychopath. Are you asking me twice if I have a fish fetish, because I actually paid attention to this short film and was able to articulate my thoughts in writing? Oh yes, and because my profile name on KZbin is MsAquaLady1? Well, if you truly want to know why I call myself that, I'll tell you. First, I absolutely love to swim in fresh water and in the ocean surf. I'm also a professional artist, and besides being commissioned for portraits and doing Irish landscapes, I mostly paint water scenes like Koi fish ponds and water Lilies, reflections and ripples on the the pond water. I also paint aquatic life. My favourite animals that I've owned and trained and painted, are horses. Does that tell you I must have a horse fetish too? To answer your obvious fascination with my feeling about fish is: no, I don't have a fish fetish; but I do love and raise fish as a hobby. But I also love my two dogs and children and my husband and I serve the Lord, who I love the most. In fact I really love and know a lot about animals also. So Gee Tee, did I satisfied your curiosity? Just wondering; is there something that you love and enjoy? God bless you! Have a great week.

This film is so beautiful. Few movies can reach really inside of you and truly touch your heart. Whoever did this has a real talent for making extraordinary films. Yes, the movie "The Shape of Water" bears striking similarity to this short film (with the exception of a few differences like the time and geographic location within the story, and the heroine in this short film not being mute). So what? I believe movies like these should be appreciated. I want more movies that explores profound truths. What does it mean to be human? What does it mean to love? What does it mean to fight to save a life when others would have disregarded it out of cruelty and greed. Like Eliza signed in "The Shape of Water" trailer in response to her neighbor being reluctant to help save the creature who captured her heart and pointing out that he's not human, "If we do nothing, then neither are we." It really resonates with you.

[@RANInkTV]

I noticed they made a few references to space in The Shape of Water. That could of also been a head nod to this animation.

For those who are here because of Del Toro's alleged plagiarism, both he and Fox have already spoken, Guillermo had to reveal that since 2011 he signed a contract where he sold the main idea of the film (a cleaning lady saves a humanoid and amphibious creature) to the 20th century fox chain, and this short film was filmed in 2015, which not only proves that Guillermo did not plagiarize, but also suspects a possible filtering (sale) of part from someone close to the project and the production house, but Guillermo has already said that he has good faith and that he expects this to be a simple coincidence with similar influences, he says that he does not like to think badly, and that he hopes that this does not have more background (like someone leaking the idea of your project).

[@IlyanaMansfield]

Honestly they're both based on common enough sci-fi tropes that I feel like coincidence is entirely likely

[@redssecret606]

But compare the cinematography. Scene for scene. Much of it is shot from the same angle, in the same way.

I mean, Let Me Hear You Whisper is about a fucking dolphine. None us heard about that movie and Toro claims he didn't have a clue. It's not really similar, it was just a poor attempt to make some money and they failed.

the guy said she was wasting oxygen because oxygen is scarce and she had a bottle and mask on. there is nothing else to be derived from that statement. She was basically called a nobody, now she saved adam, so she's a somebody. She accepted her fate at the end and took off her mask because how could she go back home anyway after doing what she did? Plus earth and humanity is dying off and she just ruined any chance of finding a way to alternate breathing anyway. Who knows, maybe the dr would have figured something out or maybe it would have been a waste. she basically accepted her fate in death as she took of her mask to see adam face to face at the end.

Was perfect until the end. What's the symbolic meaning of her taking off her breather. And also, the water pressure would have crushed her like a tin can.

[@reuteratwork8983]

The reason she took off her mask is because it didn't matter anymore -- prior to that, I was wondering what exactly she was going to do, since she couldn't go back to the facility -- well, instead of just waiting for her oxygen to run out, she took action, & embraced her end -- &, at the same time, showed Adam her unobstructed human face... As to the water pressure -- we don't actually know how deep she went -- so that's not really a valid criticism...

Fantastic till the end. Full of messages in every frame. But all I need to know is about that news article at 0:48 about Ahmedabad, a Geologist with Gujarat government and 26 fallen properties. What it signifies?

[@Chameleon1616]

They might have not exspected anyone to Read it, the picture seemed to suggest more that the gill idea would end in disaster and the article was just there for aesthetics.

Just imagine if the Merman turned Juliette into a Mermaid, as a reward for saving him, and they lived together under the sea being friends, and... I don’t know!

[@alanr8702]

I think she already has gills. They're just hidden under the scarf.

[@matthewburgess5034]

What a wonderful short story. for me it shows the futility of the propensity for "human 'over analytically idealised belief in-and-of reality' whereas, in reality in the 'true sense of the word - as is embodied in the glorious animation of Adam - in terms of "a sense of wonder & beauty" [which is in my view what reality 'really is about) juxtaposed against the futility of "narrow-minded mentality of the human mind). i like to wonder that the cleaning lady didn't dye after all that she was 'given a gift that Adams species may have had the capacity to give thus providing a beautiful and more wondrous ending to this simple but Highly compassionate cleaning lady. There is something to be learnt in this film, that is to never let go of our in-ate ability to "imagine" beyond that that we simply see with our own eyes - being more by that of our "IMAGINATION".

[@michellechapman832]

The shape of water!! It's the same concept!! Awesome!!

[@jurgenmusic18]

Para los que están aquí por el chisme del supuesto plagio de Del Toro, tanto él como Fox ya han salido a hablar, Guillermo tuvo que revelar que desde el 2011 se firmo un contrato donde el vendía la idea principal de la película (una chica del aseo salva a una criatura humanoide y anfibia) a la cadena 20th century fox, y este cortometraje fue filmado en 2015, lo cual no solo comprueba que Guillermo no realizo un plagio, sino que también da a sospechar una posible filtración (venta) de parte de alguien cercano al proyecto y a la casa productora, pero Guillermo ya ha dicho que tiene buena fe y que espera que esto sea una simple coincidencia con influencias similares, dice que a el no le gusta pensar mal, y que espero que esto no tenga mas trasfondo (como que alguien filtrara la idea de su proyecto).

[@MrKirikin]

jajaj sí, espera, ahora se tienen que disculpar los del corto

[@jurgenmusic18]

Chivinsky Punk sosa pero el hombre pez de hellboy (Ave Sapien) no es creación de del toro, es de Mike Mignola (creador de todo el universo hellboy, si, de origen hellboy es un cómic)

[@Skoda130]

Fish gills won't work for warm blooded animals. Gills would be giant heat exchangers, just like lungs. The only problem is water beïng a few hundred times more dense than air. It would suck the heat out of you. That's why marine mammals still have lungs instead of gills.

[@Javiven]

You must be fun at parties.

[@DashtinGirasol]

Is it just only me thinking that the reason the girl took off her mask is because she can breath under water.

[@kylejohnson150]

Bodzky SunflowerTv Im on board Bodzky...we had the foreshadowing of "why is she wasting oxygen?!" and the unnecessary scarf which would otherwise hide her gills, i say something smells fishy

[@BboyAcademy]

That was the first thing that entered my mind. She did work in a facility where they put gills on people, however I got an implication that they hadn't perfected it yet.

[@rvl480van5]

Bodzky SunflowerTv: That was one of the most confusing and unexplained issues in this short. Did she commit suicide in order to save Adam? Or is she also able to breathe underwater since she took off her oxygen mask? I'm just as confused as you are. Also, if this is animation, it is some of the most incredibly done animation I've ever seen. I swear I almost cannot tell that this is CGI. Great work!

[@kuppikake5062]

I believe she can breathe under water. Not only the foreshadowing. But the end you dont see a air tank. Nor do you see one falling down with the breather mask..

[@martinthewarrior5016]

that fact that her at the end you see her mask wasnt attached to a oxygen tank makes it seem to me that she had gills and was trying to hide it from the other humans.

[@punit5602]

[@Estrella.Lejana]

Hay un twit en la cuenta del cinematógrafo donde explica que la idea de "La forma del agua" nació en el 2011 y desde entonces la empezó a escribir. Además el propio director dijo que se basó en la película "El monstruo de la laguna negra" de 1953. Así que aquí no hay ningún plagio. Si los holandeses que hicieron este cortometraje "The space between us" (2015) quieren demandar a Del Toro pues están fritos. El cineasta no es ningún principiante, al contrario, es un genio con una carrera excepcional y no necesita de estos escándalos. (Además quién sabe si se pudo haber filtrado su idea entre los que hicieron este corto) y se le "adelantaron".

[@D1xi0]

Estrella.lejana ... True¡¡

[@arturoa8754]

del toro no tiene forma de probar eso, y lo que si es un hecho es que del toro vio primero el trabajo de los holandeses, no al reves, la ejecucion es la misma...es un plagio

[@hinairis19]

Similar pero siento que del toro llevo esta escensia a otro nivel ....y cada una tiene similitudes no son identicas.....

[@ricardoa3440]

Arturo A si fuera cierto lo que dices ( que no lo es) aun así del Toro es más genio xq si este corto es del 2015 del Toro tuvo año y medio para hacer su pelicula ( cosa absurda e ilogica)

[@arturoa8754]

ah, se me olvidaba que zoquetes como tu, se ven relfejados en el "genio" de Del Toro (que no lo es), lo que tu no sabes es que el gordo es un simple empleado de las productoras y ni siquiera es dueño de la supuesta propiedad intelectual, que como se puede ver aquí. se robó. Tu argumento se desbarata a pedazos con el simple hecho de que del Toro, en las fechas que se menciona que tenia las ideas, estaba grabando sus otras porquerías, alias The Crimson Peak, o los "titanes en el pacifico", supongo que eres tan burro como para pensar que estaba grabando dos peliculas al mismo tiempo. Lo mas penoso es que en Mexico se roben hasta las ideas para las peliculas, pero en lugar de decirles ladrones les dicen genios...

[@valentinaverastegui1178]

Yo diría que el corto holandés está inspirado en el personaje de Del Toro "Abe" de la película Hellboy y el diseño de arte completamente influenciado por todas las películas del cineasta mexicano. Me parece bajo querer desacreditar el fabuloso trabajo de Guillermo Del Toro, especialmente cuando el medio que más ha enfatizado el tema es un medio mexicano. Seguimos siendo cangrejos, no cabe duda.

[@atvovedka]

Valentina Verastegui I disagree with you Del Toro just made a copy of this incredible shortfilm

[@joseluisreyesm9820]

Set design was fantastic as were the audio and visual effects. In the world of indie films this was one of the best. Finally a real story i stead of a 10 minute commercial for a cliche social issue.

It's like the second part of the movie The Abyss from 1989. Good work.

[@cichlidguru1163]

Dit is het Nieuws OMB del Toro been working on shape of water since 2012 I heard

[@Hayhoestudios]

Dit is het Nieuws OMB Del Toro Ripped off The Space Between Us, got caught red-handed, and is now vehemently denying it. Google it. He deserves to get his Oscars reprimanded, and thrown in jail.

[@CarlosGutierrez-zj2qq]

Hayhoe Studios do a real research, it has been established that Del Toro started his work on this movie since 2011. So its more obvious think that the script was filtered and here we have it as a short-film. Maybe this guys should be sued

[@Hayhoestudios]

cher You are right. It's a shame that he got away with it too

[@CarlosGutierrez-zj2qq]

cher Well, even if Del Toro stole the idea (which he did not, and it has been established) his movie is a masterpiece and nothing to be compared with this short film.
