Andares in Time of War is an intriguing animation that leans heavily into its emotional landscape, blending the chaos of war with moments of serene reflection. The pacing is quite unique; it oscillates between frantic scenes of battlefield turmoil and contemplative visuals of nature, which makes for a jarring yet fascinating contrast. This juxtaposition really draws you into the soldier's psyche as he navigates memories of home and familial bonds amidst the noise of conflict. The visuals—while perhaps not as polished as later works—have a raw, hand-crafted quality that adds to the atmosphere. It’s a film that feels like it’s trying to grapple with big themes of memory, loss, and the fleeting nature of life, and it does so in a way that’s both haunting and oddly beautiful.
