Madama Butterfly

Madama Butterfly is an interesting animation in which a seemingly asian woman has an affair with an american sailor and has his baby. She waits and waits for him to return for the family. Eventually he does return but sadly he is with an American barbie. He takes the baby away with him leaving Madama Butterfly alone and depressed to kill herself.

The animation itself is intriguing, it seems to be creative in nature. I like that they used barbie style dolls in the animation and the lighting helps to tell the story. I also like that the creator kept a constant flow of music rather then some sort of audio words or subtitles leaving a few things open to interpretation.
