I've been busy with so many things recently I forget to write on the blog ! It's not good ! Anyways I'm a quite late but I will talk about the short film the fan and the flower. First the setting is in an old lady's house top room sometime in present day. The main characters are the ceiling fan and the flower. At first the ceiling fan was lonely. However, one day the old lady bought a flower and set it in the same room as the fan. The fan immediately fell in love with the flower. He does everything he can to impress the flower. The flower did not like the fan at first however, eventually it falls for the persistent appeal of the fan. The fan and the flower start a romance however to their dismay they can not reach each other. They try everything to reach other but cannot over come the distance. As the days and years go by the old lady becomes old and forgetful. Eventually she stops going to the top room all together. The fan gets old and dusty and the flower starts to wither from neglect of water. The climax, one rainy day as the flower draws close to its end the dusty worn fan musters up what little strength he had to fan once again in hopes to revive the wilting flower. At first he could not spin very much however, the more he thought about the flower the faster and stronger he could spin. He spun so fast that he breaks through the ceiling and flies away!He crashes a few miles away from the house and dies however, in doing so he made a whole in the roof where the rain could come in and revive the flower. The irony, the flower lives on sad that her beloved fan is no more but at the same time greatful for giving her life. Physically they were separated by distance, obstaciles of environment. But now the fan can be with the flower even closer in her heart.
I think though it is a comical short film it has a deep and touching message about love and life. Like how someone you thought you would never be interested in becomes someone you can never live without. Love is so ironic and mysterious in that sort of way. The house and the distance symbolizes the environment and situations in life. Things may not go The way you want them to. However, the main message of this short film I believe is love knows no boundaries. If you love someone so much you would sacrifice anything for them. Love can overcome all and give life and happiness to others. Oh my gosh! I've written so much! I'm not sure if I'm making any sense or have a point but this is just my thoughts and what I felt watching the film. Thank you!
