Bottle
“Bottle”, a stop-motion animation by Kirsten Lepore. Somehow I am six-months late on this so you’ve probably all seen it by now. This is one of the greatest short films I’ve ever seen! Kirsten has crafted something truly magical here, a story with a heart and a soul.

Watch the film below!

BRAVO!
that is a really sad story:(
but great making!how long have you been working on this?
i am really impressed!
The final is awesome!
Delightful and impressive. A lovely antidote to my get-up-early-and-go-to-work-in-the-snow-and-cold blues.
This was just DARLING!
<3 <3 <3
Tragic!!
I almost cried at the end, that was so transportative. Man, yeah Jeff I agree with you!
Whoa. I really have nothing more to say. Just Whoa.
INCREÍBLE
Nice!
Kirsten Lepore is my favorite short film maker! Her film Sweet Dreams is my absolute favorite. Love all her work.
Fantastic! And so sad!
Nooooooooooooo. Loved it.
i’m very thankful to be sharing this planet with people who offer up so much love and beauty. thank u kirsten. thank you jeff.
WHY!?? and the worst part is that i just loved it! awesome stop motion!
This is what I imagine sand and snow do when I am not looking.
i like that that merge into oneness in the end in such an atypical, yet totally literal, way.
i was screaming “noooooooooo” too
wow that is so beautiful and strangely moving, I almost wanted to cry at the end! So so so good, Kirsten Lepore is just ridiculous everything she does is so good! AHHH!
Awesome film!!
beautiful and heartbreaking
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!
One of the cutest and simultaneously tragic things I have ever seen.
LOVE.
Adorable! Talk about pulling on the heartstrings.

This reminds me of the song, “running bear” by Johnny Preston!
This was amaazing i loved it! <3
brown sand + ice = reason why there’s beautiful white sand!!! and the white sand beaches…!
This delightful film can stand on it’s own without a soundtrack, although the soundtrack does make it a little more cute. Great work. I feel somehow like this is an ad for Facebook. Two friends, far away, who like to share things, but can never actually be with each other. If we could all learn morse code, then we would have world peace once and for all.

Base on a truth story. I love the ocean sound, not sure what you could do with snow. I love ~ Love Stories. Bitter Sweet.
great movie! i didnt expect them to actually send stuff back and forth,and the dead mouse was disgusting but funny how he put it on his head.
Thats the saddest thing I’ve seen all day. I thought they where going to be together but no they just died.
That was brilliant! Who knows, maybe they actually met up under the seabed.
