  Moksha (Animation, 5’)

  In a dark, apocalyptic world where every falling star brings Earth one step closer to total darkness, a lonely inventor desperately works on a machine that can send the stars back into space. When the last star crashes to Earth, the inventor manages to place it in his completed machine just in time. Everything seems to be turning out fine—until the machine suddenly explodes. The star goes out, and all hope seems lost.
