"Can we trace the chain of events that leads to our own birth? ... Is our existence just coincidence? ... Do little things matter?" These are the impressive, scarily intelligent, completely frightening sorts of questions that might easily give a person a headache if they were not very careful. But, in this oscar-winning best animated short, they are explored to brilliant effect. The Danish Poet is great storytelling, great animation, and great fun. I loved it. And no headache in sight.

(This scene is particularly enjoyable, I think, for anyone in the midst of growing their hair. As I am.)
