Summer (2021) is an intriguing piece of animation that plays with the idea of childhood and the passage of time. The protagonist, who is almost obsessed with not growing up, gives this film a whimsical yet slightly melancholic tone. You get a sense of nostalgia, as they dart through urban landscapes, engaging in a sort of hide-and-seek with the ticking clock. The animation style is vibrant and expressive, capturing the essence of youthful exuberance and the haunting inevitability of adulthood. The pacing feels almost dreamlike, letting you linger in moments that evoke both joy and a deep sense of longing. It's distinct in how it blends vibrant visuals with deeper themes of time and the pressures of growing up, creating a unique viewing experience.
