Failed attempt to impress

I really disliked this short film and here is why. Unnecessary, convoluted statements that had as a sole goal to impress. Seemingly grandiose, but essentially vacant statements about life that were barely supported by the plot of the film. Attempts to verbalism in order to mask the underlying weakness of the writer. Director is unable to salvage the short film since he is consumed by cliché shots of feet and cats. All of this presented to the viewer with the label of an allegory in an effort to promote something untalented and superficial as artsy and progressive. Anyway, there might be some value in watching this film simply because of the mere fact that it is rare to come across such a failed attempt in a short film.
