About This Movie

So, 'Aug 16th' is this really intriguing piece from 2001, right? It blends experimental computer animation with traditional ink on paper, which gives it a unique texture. The folks at Insertsilence—Peterson and Pitaru—bring a fresh perspective to the medium. Their backgrounds in media design shine through, making the visuals both cerebral and visceral. The pacing feels almost meditative at times, with an atmosphere that can shift from serene to a bit disorienting. It doesn’t follow a conventional narrative, which is part of its charm, really. It’s not your typical animation; it’s more of an exploration of form and technique, and definitely stands out in a collector's library. A real conversation starter.
