Madama Butterfly

Frist Off I'm a hugh fan of claymation/ stop motion, I hope to become an animator myself self after I graduate.
Any who there seemed to be so many messages hitting you all at once, at least when you're watching the video. The music however did guide you through out the story giving you the feeling of the moment.
I wasn't expecting that they were going to have the two characters lay naked in the field since it was a claymation, which I liked for the shocked value and since it was the major plot of the rest of the video. It was at this point I stop seeing it as figures but as characters only for the animators to remind me later at the end that it was claymation, but I'll get back on that in a bit.
For the story it made me think about how we had/ have soldiers over seas and a lot of them are getting around. I'm sure that there are a lot of babies whose fathers were solders and they never found out about these kids or at least something like that. It also reminded me of an episode of The King of the Hill, which Hank found out that he had a half Japanese brother.
As the Music guides us with the story we see this asian girl with this american man and she ends up having a daughter with him, but the american guy leaves to go to war before she has the baby. The girl waits for the soldier for years to a point where her daughter is older, 5ish maybe? And when she see the soldier return, he's only there for the kid and it turns out he has more children from other countries. This is where the music starts getting trouble or depressing yet terrifying. In my mind I wondered why the woman with the soldier stayed with him after he "gone around" the world, but it was because this one soldier took pretty much everything from this poor girl that she ends up killing herself, it is also at this point that the animators remind you that this is animation by making her walk in the studio and rip herself apart reviling her as a doll.
I like that for the fact that it makes the scene not so bad to watch yet at the same time you understand what she is doing to her self. A since of censorship so to speak. It then ends as her remains turn into a butterfly which we see at the beginning, so theres some time mind freaks going on here.
But I really enjoyed watching this, I thought the animation was done well. I wasn't focus on the music so much but I was aware that it made the scene have a emotion to it. Not sure if it was different songs or not but when the music tone changed from happy to tragic I was on the edge of my seat.
