    Beautiful work, I love your style! Funny, I recognized the Swedish accent before looking at the credits!

    I'm also a big fan of your film "Procrastination", which was screened at Uppsala International Short Film Festival, at which I work.

    What an ending didn't expect that to happen... Sad story had a retro feel type with the animation and music. Good work! =]

    Like the movement of the film, camera angles imaginative and the contrasting bright colours combined with unusual narrative - refreshing work - nice one
