12 Dpo And Feel Very Wet

Angels Egg


Angels represents a very unusual film, since this largely bleak lives by its surreal atmosphere and the impressions and more like a work of art than a film remembered. The story is about a little girl who wanders alone through a deserted city and protects a large egg, which symbolizes the innocence and hope. She is hopeful that a bird in the egg grows and their environment improves slowly. Cities lie in ruins, a gray jacket is above the world and the blood-red clouds give mechanical noises. Their Everyday she spends water surfaces to fill and place it on the stairs of a dark observatory. One day, a young man who wears a large cross on his shoulders and tries driven by curiosity and thirst for knowledge, to break that egg. But both characters give each other support and share their journey together. During the 50 minutes are just three short dialogues conducted and the feelings of the characters are brought near through facial expressions and Gestig.


"I hear the breath of the bird"

"This is just the wind" "I can hear its wings"
"It's only your heart"

For me, Angels Egg is still a story of hope, innocence and human thirst for knowledge and curiosity. The special thing about this film is that every viewer will experience a different story and a great opportunity to reflect and interpret present. The girl asked the man again and again not to follow her and as the two approached, she asks him still not to open her egg. The precise idea of the creatures she has what should be developed in it, is left to interpretation. Then the girl a "bird" that looked more like a fallen angel with skulls is rather inclined, perhaps an angelic beings. If it was actually a dead bird, which actually symbolizes freedom, it can also stand for the fact that people have committed any errors that it restricted their freedom and the world was so destroyed.





is the man the other hand, represents the sinner, but who cares about the girl and offers protection, however, when it succumbs to temptation. For him, who gave up the hope for a better world for a long time, the egg is empty. Perhaps the content would differ if the girl would open the egg and it was sprung up by itself. Other symbolic figures as shadows on the wall, which desperately chasing fish, However, this can never reach, as well as people set themselves goals that they often do not reach. Nevertheless, it hunts for these shadows. In the end, reminiscent of the movie, an adaptation of Noah's Ark story, which is reinforced by much Christian symbolism. A very unusual, melancholic film, which itself is found in Japan rarely achieved and import prices from over 100 €. Through the Internet, the film can be viewed online course quickly. I bought some time ago Angels Egg by 80 €.
