This is Brent Bonacorso’s short film called West of the Moon.
Much like his well-known advertizing visual signature, West of the Moon is chock-full of fantasy imagery and enticing, subtle effects.
The film’s script is penned by Bonacorso himself. He chooses to tell the story from the point of view of an old man reflecting on his past life. He pines for a past love lost during the Great War. “There was no Great War,” his forlorn narrator says, “it was a terrible one.”
He brings back his love from the dead with his grenade heart.
Beautiful, right?
