Watch: Uber Trippy, Mind-Melting Animated Short 'Eating in The Dark'

Eating in The Dark Short Film

"Having this would make you fully independent." I love stumbling across incredible animated shorts and this is another one that will melt your mind. In a good way… if that's possible. Eating in The Dark is an experimental animated short made by a Finnish animation filmmaker named Inari Sirola. The film follows a woman named Siro on her "quest for self discovery" as she's tormented by a yellow demon reminding her about all her mistakes. She wanted to make a film about identity. "I realised how fragile a person's identity can be and how easily we can get lost. Personally, when I'm feeling vulnerable, other people’s opinions and comments weigh more than they should." Featuring the voices of Inari Sirola, Susie Scott, and Ruanth Chrisley Thyssen. There is some clever storytelling in here in addition to all the mesmerizing animation.
