For those of you who don't know already, the Kiwi Bird is the bird that hasn't got wings.
I find the video below extremely sad, although...
... it dies happy.
Some people felt so bad for the poor kiwi bird that they made another ending, a more dear one, but which loses the whole point of the first movie. It's cute though.
This short animation makes me sad mainly because no one deserves to not be able to fullfil its dreams. We can find a similar story in Babel, a movie I've seen recently. It is not quite about fullfilling a dream; it's about a teenage japanese girl that can't hear, and the similarity I'm talking about is found in one powerful scene: she goes with some friends in a club, but can't really feel... anything. Exactly as the kiwi bird can't know how it is to fly. The girl sees people around her, having fun, dancing... she tries to dance but doesn't have rhythm, you can't dance without music, without having heard a sound before. However, she doesn't seem too upset in the movie, because she had taken an Ecstasy pill so she is quite amazed by what she can feel: the lights that surround her. But the way it was filmed and directed really makes you shiver.

poor kiwi
scena de care zici din babel e singura reusita i thought
hmmm, mie mi s-a parut destul de powerful babel. a bit long for my taste - amortisem - dar frumos.
nu inteleg de ce nici tie, nici lui vladutz nu v-a placut, dar intr-adevar scena aceea e cea mai reusita.
