Fable is a 2005 short that finally got uploaded to the internet by Daniel Sousa, after winning a slew of awards worldwide during its festival run. I absolutely loved his sense of stylization, imbued with a visual smokiness that added a sense of grit to the world the protagonists inhabited. Due to the abstract narrative nature of this otherwise beautiful, dark short, (Something he acknowledged himself), I'm going to add a little synopsis of the short to accompany it for your reference. Enjoy.
'In this cyclical fairy tale, a man and a woman are cursed to be forever apart. We never see them inhabit the same space but yet we feel that there's a connection between them. One common element is that they both have the power to transform into animals. But when they do they are compelled to hunt down and destroy the other. They become blind to their passions and are overwhelmed by their instincts.'
