A short animation that tells the tale of a being who is completely aware that it is living in illusion and who seeks to understand the Truth of the universe only to realize that the answer lies within itself. The being does not really arrive at a conclusion of what the Truth actually is, since the Truth can not be found or sought for.
The Truth is whole, transparent, formless, colorless, limitless.

Director biography
- Chi Uyen Tran
I’m Chi Tran (Chi Chi)—a filmmaker, animator, and art director who thrives on storytelling through visuals. My journey started as an editor at 116 Pictures, where I sharpened my eye for narrative flow and cinematic techniques. But storytelling was never just about editing for me—it was about creating worlds from the ground up.
That drive led me to start Roto Production, my own animation studio, where I get to bring ideas to life in bold, visually striking ways. I love pushing creative boundaries, blending technical precision with a strong artistic vision to craft stories that resonate.
Through animation and film, I explore deep themes and emotions, always striving to tell stories that connect, move, and inspire. For me, every frame is a chance to say something meaningful—to create something unforgettable.
