Short Message.

About This Movie

Short Message is this quirky little gem from 2008 that really plays with absurdity. The animation style is simple yet effective, letting the bizarre premise take center stage. You've got this strange man who just won’t let another guy use the toilet in peace. It’s all so surreal and oddly comedic. The cherry on top? The soundtrack—a soup commercial from 1991—adds a layer of weirdness that's hard to shake off. The pacing is brisk, which keeps you on your toes, and there's this underlying theme of everyday frustrations turned absurd. If you appreciate animation that isn't afraid to push boundaries and mess with sound, this one’s a curious watch for sure.
