It Was Shaky

It Was Shaky (Shatalo, 2010) is a short animated film by Aleksey Dyomin, and you can watch it online on iFILM. Fourteen minutes about a tiny village on a riverbank and a black cat wandering through its unhurried little world.

There is barely a plot in the usual sense. The world gets taken apart, held up to the light, examined piece by piece — and then reassembled, and somehow it still won't line up neatly. No real magic on the surface, yet a fairy tale quietly forms: watercolor-soft, warm, a touch melancholy. One for viewers who love hand-drawn auteur animation over story-driven spectacle.
