  2. Hi!
    I believe this short is a very well developed video. Obviously it is a short story of a man, who creates a wonderful and ideal world for the woman that he loves, and as we could see, she is sick.
    Without any doubt, it reflects feelings such us; love, sadness, hope, etc. But without saying a single word.
    I think that the author gives us the oportunity to reflect about how a man can create a new reality, just to see the love of his life enjoying and admiring the creation, for just a few minutes...
    An interesting video to think and reflect about it.
    See you!

  3. Hello everyone:
    An interesting story. I like the power he has to control all the virtual palettes, and even insignificant details for simple and mortal male as a blooming flower.
    This story has two senses for me.
    1. You can change reality based on love to raise love in your significant other.
    2. you can make a sea of lies to protect your significant other of yourself because you love and you are a coward to face your own truth.
    Anyway, you are changing reality to hide all your remorses about your significant other would think.
    I think it has the same value to wait until the total recovery or the end of your significant other, rather than playing silly games to feeling better for a moment and destroyed by misery and loneliness after that.
    I have seen some videos with the same idea, but I'm not able to think about now...
    however, when I remember you'll see!!!

  4. Uff, without words...
    The video is amazing, when I started to see it, I thought: "this video has to do with something technological, with the future", but the meaning of this is really deeper. This video has a lot of meaning, but we can see from it whatever we want to see. I mean, different points of view.
    For me, it doesn't matter how much technology has in the world, if you don't have that you really love.

  5. This video shows the wonderful feeling of love that a man expresses the woman he loves. He uses holographic tools to build a world to his woman who is sick, perhaps as a way of showing what he can do to her and imagine what they could build the future together if she survives.The technology shows us how easy we can do things just by moving a finger, and on the other hand makes us think about in relation to the mortality of man. That means the technology can move mountains, but can not prevent death.
    It is a very good video.

  6. It's a great short, I love this kind of movies with non expected end. This type of art is very subjective, it can creates different feelings at the same time, depending on different circumstances, maybe if you are or were in love you would feel a little bit sad at the end or maybe happy because finally in a certain moment they are connected in some way…

    Different people could have different perceptions and they could analysed it in a different way, for that reason I like this kind of short because it give us the instance to analysed and share your points of view , It creates communication.
    You can know a lot about a person depending on his comment: personality, values, etc.

    A very interesting video!

  7. It is a wonderful video, with different interpretations, for me the video is about what a person can do for loving, when we fall in love with someone, we are able to tolerate any adversity. When I saw the part when the man is in the hospital with the woman, I feel so emotional, similar when we watch a love movie with a sad end.

  9. Hi !!

    I loved this video, I mean this video is amazing. I would like to have this power.
    Maybe in the future we will have this power, who knows?.
    Anyway it would be a useful tool because we could create maybe the perfect classroom and in that way all the students would have everything that they would need.
    Moreover in the case of those people who are sick, it would be useful too; because it is so sad to spend the time in a hospital, I think it is the worst thing in the world.

    Well, good video !!
    See you

  10. There is so much meanness, jealousy and evil in this world that make me sick, so when someone has the capacity to enjoy giving a magic moment to others, this person is more valuable than gold. Do you know someone in this way, don´t you?

    This man was as God creating things for a relevance purpose: She could have a little happy moment despite her disease.

  11. Hi!

    Well when I watched the video at beginning I thought that it was about technology, but it was totally different because it was less important it did not matter, the most important was the interpretation of it, why did he design these thing?, I thought at beginning and I realize it is because he wanted to create a different world for his love. When they appeared the scene in the hospital, I felt so sad because knew she was sick and will dead but he did everything for giving happiness at the end of her life.
    I really do not know if she will dead but it is the interpretation that I thought.

  12. Good Video, the holographic images will dominate the classes too in the future, jajaj. Anyway, this kinds of videos are those who makes girls become crazys, you know...romantics stuffs and bla bla bla.

    As Elizabeth said, it will be an excellent idea to work with this kind of technology in classrooms, Woul be a pretty good way of interact with the students.

    PD: Quote from a Random post in Youtube comments:

    "great concept for a movie, but the dude was such a bad actor.....so bad....."

    Jajajajaj, Best Post ever, Pwned!!!11

  14. Really, really impressive!!! It captured the essence of a man´s love for a woman. Maybe the intention of this video is show us that we could appreciate the simple things of life, like the smell of the flower, we have to take a moment to see what happen surround us.
    It would be great to build a world for the ones we love.
    In my opinion it´s an interesting look into our potential future, combined with a touching story.
