So, 'Remember' (2015) is this intriguing animation that starts off with a bang—literally. The protagonist gets a phone call that leads to his house blowing up, yet he just carries on with his day as if it's all normal. There's this bizarre, almost surreal quality to it. The tone feels both dark and absurd, which really pulls you in. The pacing is quite unique, drifting between moments of shock and calm, which is unsettling but effective. What stands out here is the blend of 2D animation with a stark narrative—definitely not something you come across every day. It’s got this oddball charm that makes you think, almost like a modern fable wrapped in a philosophical question.
