This is an OK film, it tries to say too much in too little time. To prove my point, I’ll summarise the movie for you. We’ve got Ajar and Pitt, they’re friends, in fact, they have no choice but to be friends because even outcasts make fun of them. They are a part of the dusties, they live in the slums of the desert (not the dessert, for my dyslexia), Ajar yearns to leave where he lives for a better life, when talking about this to Pitt, he sees one of the green snakes and falls so head over heels in love that he face planted right into the oasis where the green snakes live. Boom, love story about a dude falling in love with a total stranger, what could go wrong? But, this is not the full story, on Eva’s side of the tale, she finds herself trapped in this Oasis. She has it all, a father who’s currently trying to arrange a marriage between her and some bozzo named Jon-Jon, a brother who mocks her while she breaks down and a theoretically perfect life in a green paradise, aside from the 2 things previously listed, she has nothing to worry about. Then, she decides that if she looks like a dusty, she could get outside of her “home” and explore the desert. But while leaving, she catches the attention of the bird police. There’s snake racism going on, and she’s now a dusty. Good, racism and the potential to explore the social system of these snakes, what could go wrong? Eventually, the disguised Ajar and the now turned dusty Eva, meet and are pushed off a cliff into a raging river by the bird police. After a traumatic swim, involving Eva kissing Ajar to resuscitate him and their clever disguises falling off, they find some respite on some wood out of sight from the birds gunning for them. Now with their masks off, they can finally talk to each other honestly. After a lightly antagonistic chat, Eva decides to take a little walk with Ajar, or at least tries to invite him to walk before she is kidnapped by some guy named Omar (oops, I said his name). After being bullied by the avian cops and taking Eva’s brother as a hostage, Ajar makes it his life's mission to rescue this one girl he has never met and whom he’s hopelessly in love with. Please note: this is an 84-minute-long film, and this story needs a trilogy at least. Another thing that I’ll criticise is Eva and Ajar’s romance; by the end of the film, they act like they had an already intimate friendship or relationship despite only talking to each other 3 times over the course of the story, including the end. Now, if this romance was developed, nurtured and given proper time to be one, this could work. But I don’t think it can. I do love the animation, especially Ajar’s design, more so at the end of the movie, I will appreciate it for that.
