This animated short is a tragic and twisted story about the dangers of revenge. A cruel mother mistreats her son, feeding him dog meat and forcing him to sleep in the cold. A loon, who tells the boy that his mother blinded him, helps the child regain his eyesight. Then the boy seeks revenge, releasing his mother’s lifeline as she harpoons a whale and watching her drown. Based on a portion of the epic Inuit legend “The Blind Boy and the Loon.”

Good concept, poorly executed.
It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
