Welcome to Your Daily Short, a new feature on Film.com that will highlight and stream a short film at high noon. Every weekday. Every week.
TODAY’S SHORT: “Everything Will Be Okay” (Don Hertzfeldt) 2006
RUNNING TIME: 17:00
WHY YOU SHOULD WATCH IT: Welcome to the world of rogue animator Don Hertzfeldt, whose mentally anguished stick figures distill the human condition into a series of blunt observations about the world around us and the thoughts it inspires. Each of the three short films that he cut together into his first feature, 2012's “It’s Such a Beautiful Day,” follows the adventures of a seemingly ordinary man named Bill, who is among the modern cinema’s most wistfully relatable characters (despite the fact that he’s a series of wiggly lines who might be suffering from a fatal mental disorder).
“Everything Will Be Okay” is the first installment of the trilogy, and a beautiful introduction into the headspace of one of the few animators who is actively pushing the medium forward.
