The Flying Sailor is a short animated film that tells the story of a sailor who survived a huge explosion that happened in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada in 1917. The movie is not just about the explosion, but it's also about life and death, memory, and the force that connects us all. The animation style is a mix of 2D and 3D, which gives it a unique look. The film also has a funny side to it, with the sailor flying through the air naked, and even a fish making an appearance. But it's also a serious film, with emotional scenes showing the sailor's memories of his life flashing before his eyes. The music in the film is really good, and it adds to the emotions of the movie. Overall, The Flying Sailor is a great example of how animation can tell complex stories in a short amount of time. It was also one of the shortest films nominated for the Animated Short category at the 2023 Oscars.
