Down with the Dawn

About This Movie

So, 'Down with the Dawn' is a curious little gem from 2012 that really draws you in with its unique animation style. It's not your typical narrative; instead, it plays with abstract themes of birth and transcendence. The visuals are compelling—these orbs swirling through the stratosphere create a dreamlike atmosphere. The pacing feels meditative, almost like a visual poem. I appreciate the collaboration between Run Wrake and Howie B; there’s a distinct sense of creativity that shines through. You can feel the experimental vibe, which makes it stand out from other animations of its time. It’s more about the feeling and experience than a conventional storyline, and that’s what gives it its own charm.
