Identify - CGI 3D Animated Short HD: "Premier Automne" by - Carlos De Carvalho & Aude Danset

This animation is an incredible piece of 3D CGI animation,  i think it uses a combination of cell shading and cgi shading to create a really pleasing aesthetic of sincere looking characters in the children and a dark foreboding, shadowy world around them.

The animation is about two children who represent summer and winter, summer being the girl and winter the boy. However they can't interact as its impossible for the two to meet, but the children's (I'm going to call them familiars) familiars, in the form of labrador puppies for the girl and skeleton puppies for the boy begin to cross over to the other season causing the two of them to come together. This causes the familiars to get defensive of their owners on both sides eventually leading to them crossing into each others seasons themselves. Winter, however brings death, while summer brings life so once again another thing that kept these children apart. In the end however the two children come to an understanding with each other and appear to be playing in the final scene.

I think that, while there was a lot of symbolism in the whole film, it was in the last scene, in the end credits that had the most meaning; the children are on either side of a tree with the summer keeping it vibrant on one side while winter leaves everything dead on the other, and as they chase each other around the tree they can't catch one another and are causing the seasons in the tree to rotate around with them switching sides. The symbolism in this scene i think shows better than the actual film that these two seasons can never meet which leaves it to be a bit sad.
