Synopsis

A 2D animated film about an old flip phone that gets replaced by the latest smartphone model. The animation’s hand-drawn style complements the film’s message, which is to face the inevitable obsolescence with grace and wisdom as you gain self-knowledge. In other words: accept your limitations and move on!
