So, 'From Flores'—it's an interesting piece from '91 that really leans into the atmosphere of isolation and desperation. The animation style is distinct, with a hand-drawn quality that adds a certain weight to the stormy backdrop. You feel the tension as the small boat fights against the waves, and the pacing mirrors that struggle, blending slow moments of reflection with bursts of urgency. The characters are linked through their fates, and there’s a haunting quality to their interactions that lingers.
