When you are rooting for the two dystopian-era mining robots to work together to find the minerals, and get depressed because greed destroys their partnership (and themselves), you know you might have stumbled onto a metaphor of something or other.

An absolutely gorgeous hyper-realistic animated short about the travails, possibilities, and pains of modern love and existence. This is a series of paintings to be immersed in, rather than a linear story being told. It is based upon observations Mielgo made in a number of major cities, listening in on conversations and watching the way people interacted.
