I think the reason his daughter is more grown up than the time she died is because of all the times he watered the tree for her

And it wasn´t pointless. That stick didn´t grow in the desert. But - just like his daughter - it grew in the afterlife, where it marked the meeting point for his daughter to wait and for him to find her. Or at least that may have been his final thought, instead of: "This is too much sand.".

This might be me, but I had a feeling that yes- this short film could be perceived as how hard loved ones work to make you happy, and how selfless they can be, but I also had the impression of it being about failure as well. That no matter how hard you work at something, no matter how much soul and blood and sweat you pour into it, if the "soil" isn't furtile, nothing will grow. This can also be applied to the girl. The Father was trying his very best to keep her from dying, but she needs more than just water. Realistically, she needs medicine, food, and a safe place to live. The tree needs more than just water. It needs an environment that's capable of letting things grow. There's how you intend and hope things to be, and what they actually are. The Father's intentions was nothing but good, but his hard work didn't go anywhere. This isn't because he didn't work hard enough, rather that where he was is impossible to work in.

But In the video, in the afterlife he saw his daughter drawing and they hugged, and the fully grown tree turned out to be the dead stick irl.

I love that, even though we didn’t see the tree grow over the years that the man watered it, the fact that it could withstand the storm meant that it had grown roots that were deep and strong and that is a powerful message

Eryk Steele

It doesn’t matter if the stick grew into a tree or not, it was the gesture and love that mattered most

Cliff Cadio

4y↑26

Umm... yes it did matter. That’s why the title is called “tree” because the old man kept on watering the stick, it wasn’t growing because the tree in the afterlife was the stick that the old man was watering. The more good you do on earth, the same thing you get in the afterlife.

abood tube396 I don’t wanna expose my beliefs as it may cause a controversial conflict. I just explained my perspective of the video. What i was trying to say is that no matter what dangers may try to destroy you, believing or faith can make you strong, and will give you good. If you believe that one day you wanna become an actor, you would have the passion to help you get there. But if you don’t believe you will become an actor, then you will most likely fail.

This short film is about loss. This short film is about grief. This short film is about how no matter how hard you try, no matter how much you love someone, sometimes you just lose them. Sometimes people just die. But that doesn’t mean that you stop loving them. You keep loving that person, even though they’re dead, and you’ll love them until the day you die because life is unjust that way. Some people might say that that’s a depressing message. To those people I say “This message is not for you.”

I think the great thing about this one is that regardless of the simplicity of the story -- every step of the way is predictable, with every introduced story element you know where its going -- it's still easy to enjoy and be invested in the story simply due to how well and how efficiently it's told. The consistency with the shapes in the world, and the graphical shot compositions are also just lovely. Overall it's just a seamlessly tied together package. Everything about is just efficient and beautiful.

Shahid Karim

@Some One well if you put it that way even some of the most character developmental movies and films would look dumb it’s about execution a character might develop a lot but if the execution isn’t right it’s not gonna be good i think what he meant was the execution was a lot better than many movies and i’d say it is because it does what a lot of movies dont,build up think about it in a movie lets say a action movie when someone immediately gets game ended during the start you wont feel anything because you didnt know anything about the character or had any attachments to itbut this movie does do that it slowly shows what happened which is why i think it’s a great film

I lost my grandfather almost 2 years ago now, and I’m still battling with the intense grief and loss that that entails. He was such an instrumental person in my childhood, and unlike my other grandparents, whose flaws become more and more apparent every passing year, he was just a genuinely good guy. He was old, and we all knew he didn’t have much time left, but the news still came as a shock and a tragedy. I think that part of why the pain of loss is so intense is that it always feels like it happens too soon, like you should have had more time, even if that sentiment isn’t really reasonable.

This short encapsulates that in such a visceral, raw way. Every time I need to cry, really cry, I go here. Thank you for this. Thank you so much.

What a great film. Amazing how this animation provokes meaningful emotions with such simple characters and a simple story in a very short amount of time. I've watched countless live-action movies with much more time and budget to work with by comparison, but these bigger films can't manage to create characters or stories anyone actually cares about on the same level that this small animated short did. I also love that this was done using 2D. Still would have been great as 3D rendered, but the 2D art and animation gave it more charm in my opinion.

Corbin Barron

The fact it lasted so long against the storm makes me think the stick was growing roots

Verbena

5y↑2.6K

This may or may not be the idea behind the animation, but I have a thought. Perhaps the tree in the little girl's afterlife was only growing and blooming because the man kept the watering the "tree". It reminds me of the Pixar movie Coco, where as long as we remember someone, they're spirit literally lives on, but this adds a step to it by creating a bigger more beautiful afterlife for the departed by doing little things to remember them by.

I mean, in the día de muertos tradition, we usually do many things just for that reason, to remember them, I don't know how "ofrendas" translate to English , but in these ones, we put things that the people in the afterlife liked when they were alive, we put decorations, candlelights, etc. It's not just remember.

In the end, the sand dune holding the stick was the one which also covered the father during the sand storm. So basically it was the father holding the stick, who died, captured in sand. This idea gave me goosebumps. I became so emotional at the end of the video. Hats off to the story ❤

My own interpretation of this short film was that it tells us that it's better to try, to at least have something to hold on to. It's not pointless to hope for the stick to grow and become a tree, what's pointless is not trying. In real life, we tend to judge the outcome, even before we start to do it. We often jump into conclusions. We scare ourselves that's why we are afraid to try doing it. We tend to say to ourselves that "Nothing will happen, it's pointless". It seemed like he watered the stick in his world (nothing happened) and didn't grow but turned to a healthy tree in the place where his daughter is. Btw, anyone watching this during the pandemic ?

River Bandit

This man is a true father. Not only did he give most of his water to his daughter, he even got her a false tree just to give her hope in the end. Even after her death, he spends his last days giving water to a stick. And, he even tries to save this false tree. I don’t know how he’s been able to service that long, but that just shows his dedication to his daughters wish and dream. 10/10

I know every time the Gobelins team uploads a piece, it's going to be stunning. The technical work and skill put into each work is nothing less than jaw dropping in every instance. But there's always the story to take into account. Sometimes, it's short and cute and fun, and then you get shorts like this. The ones that, while simple and wordless, speak volumes of not only the people behind the work, but the human condition. What we do as human beings and what our actions make of us, and how not every happy ending is happy in the way we hope.
I cried watching this. I cried hard. But it was a good kind of crying. And I feel better for having done so.
Because despite everything, he got to see her again, and they're happy together now. And that's what really matters.

This REALLY tugged on my heart strings. After his daughter died, the one thing keeping him happy in this plain desert, he decided to work all day getting water, just to pour it into a stick hoping he can get the tree the daughter always wanted. He saved so little for himself. Then when his time came, a big beautiful tree arose among the white gorgeous grass, its because he watered the stick, its because he had hope, that the tree grew in the afterlife

For anyone still watching in 2020, the theme is love keeps an individual together even in tough situations. This is because the old man worked those hard hours pumping water for his girl, and also continued life after his girl died, he kept it together and kept growing that tree.
OR
The theme is love creates an unbreakable bond even in tough situations. Basically for the same reasons.

I miss my dad so much. Everynight he would massage this liquid herb tonik, ordered by my favorite pediatrician, everytime I was in horrible pain. I was in early elementary. My Dad would try to stay up to see if I was fine. This is my interpretation. Out of nowhere, I have the same aches all over my body and feel a feverish. I'll just ride it out. My mom has her kualities,too. My dad R. I P. I still have my Mom. I'm sorry I it's inkoherent, my hands ache. 💖

Miss my father too, he passed away in cancer some 10-11 years ago, when i was 12-13.
Miss him dearly, but life moves on no matter if you want it to or not.
Stay strong and know that your father will always be with you and one day you'll meet him again, just how i'll meet mine again.

How did the short animation film genre become so focused on depicting heavy, heart wrenching topics?! 😭

This is a great, educative short film but not as most people perceive it. Devotion, dedication, love, kindness, faithfulness, good intentions are not enough to live, let alone live happily. Yes, they reunited in the afterlife and were happy forever after but it came at a terribly heavy cost. (weird that they left out the mother at the afterlife reunion..)

The father was weak despite most people sympathizing with him and think he was strong. If he was strong he would try to not lose his wife firstly, then try to not lose his daughter, then try to not lose himself. All he did was accepting death and his fate of being born in a harsh environment. (the desert is metaphorical in my opinion. it stands for every extremely harsh environment that some people have to live into. this environment could even exist in big cities)

Ethical values and romanticism are necessary to human species but they are not enough to live. That's what i understand from this short film.

SubhanAllah, this really is so heart touching! After I saw, I felt a deeper love for my father, and I thought about how hard our parents work for us. Parents are such a blessing that they would die for you if it meant your survival. Those of us who have parents, guys, I think it's time we show them how much they mean to us. One day, we (creations of God) are all meant to die, but those who do good in this life will in Sha Allah be rewarded.

Authors and animators, what an amazing story and moral you've shown us all! Thank you so so much for this! I needed it!

May Allah Almighty bless you all and guide us to the straight path, and make us all amongst those who show our utmost respect to our parents, Amen!

Iman Khan ~Ahhh, so touching... just wondering... how many 12 year old brides you have and the number of first cousins in your ancestral line?

PS I know, I know, the truth is sometimes painful... but it's still the truth. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Jeff Lindeman Who told you that your culture is the only one that matters?

FrostyRPGT It's disturbing that instead of denying those things you seem to be labelling them as culture. Also, hating on someone's culture doesn't equate to thinking it doesn't matter.

@TheRABIDdude in Europe people got married in their early teens even into the early 20th century. Gypsies still do. As for first cousins, Royal and noble families around the world are all tightly related. Do read your Pride and Prejudice. Stuff like this happened throughout our history.
The Muslims are just more Conservative, and keep doing those things, while we apparently stopped. That's all.

My favorite story. My dream would become animator and be able to tell stories that make people feel like they are not alone. Humans are simple creatures, we just need promises of hope and love to fill the void of our existence... We all cry and smile the same way.

Animated movies protected me so much from boredom and violence during my childhood. I feel like I was alive through my favorite characters. Even if I'm not able to realize my dream, I hope good people will keep telling great stories like this one. The ones that teach how to love to those who feel lonely. 💕

Follow your dreams! Nothing is impossible! There are a few exceptions but no worries.
Btw why does this have only 35 likes? You should get more! I'll help!

It's not often you get a soundtrack all on the bass clarinet love it. Also how the tree stopped growing because she did too really simple but powerful

This is one of the most beautiful things I've seen yet. Not many things bring tears to my eyes.

Kris Rake

When I was young I felt nothing from such stories. Now I'm a parent, I watched the whole thing with tears in my eyes.

The Queen of Boba

I just noticed the house's shape is the same as the burial at the end. Perhaps it represents unity and love, where he and his daughter would neet again. Truly heartbreaking yet beautiful

Christel Jarry

All what you do in the physical is growing in the spiritual...the love he gave to his daughter and the tree waited for him...💓🌳
