I liked the shadowy monochrome shading on this short animation. It is really quite effective at conveying something I can only ever imagine - not being able to see. When a man is trying to watch the football on the telly and his phone rings, he throws it across the room and accidentally out of the window, just missing his cat! It is found by a blind chap walking with his dog who answers it and promptly attempts to repatriate it. Guide dog sees cat and next thing they are playing chasing games and he is left in an environment riddled with impatient noise, bustle and little to help him get his bearings - or his dog back! He then comes up with an ingeniously artistic solution to his problem. It's quite a potent reminder of just how we make assumptions about everyday life and movement and if you try just listening to it, the audio is quite unnerving.
