Massimo does a really great job in capturing an individual's feelings of loss and isolation in only 5 minutes with no dialogue. While in this kind of framework, you don't get a sense of the character's exact backstory, you get the sense that he feels completely out of place where he is and wants to venture somewhere else.
The cinematography really carries the whole experience with great locales and wonderful use of color, contrasting the "flashbacks" with the present situation. It's very heavy on contrast and shadows which looked very appealing. Additionally, the score had a nice tempo to it that added to the tension of the scenes.
Overall, this is a great silent short. Hope to see more in the future.
