Dimanche by Patrick Doyon


Dimanche is an animated short film about a boy's daily routine on a Sunday. He's dragged to church, and then later on to his grandma's house, by his mom. His dad is apathetic to everything that happens, and just watches everything around him. He doesn't seem to have any friends in the short, so he plays with a coin by putting it on the railroad track next to his house to flatten it, but by doing so he harms a bear.
It has a muted color palette and a simple animation style, and I'm not really sure about the plotline. It doesn't stand out from the rest of the short stories, so I'm giving it 2 out of 5 stars.
