It Was Summer is quite a curious piece of animation. You get this serene vibe from the very start—Plato in his hammock, the sun warming everything just right. It feels like a slice of childhood, where the lines between reality and imagination blur. The arrival of that strange cat and the heron sets off this whimsical adventure, which might just be a kid's fanciful daydream. The atmosphere is light, yet there's this underlying question of what’s real and what’s just play. The hand-drawn style has a certain charm, and the pacing allows moments of reflection amidst the playful chaos. It's distinctive in how it captures that fleeting essence of summer and childhood exploration.
