Emory University first year medical student Max Cohen sent a link to his gripping animation project, Der Soldat. He writes,
“Der Soldat began as a response to my job as an emergency medical technician in New York, and evolved into a broader film about what it feels like to care for others. I wanted to make something that conveyed the feeling of that work. The animation is hand-drawn on paper with pencil, totaling about nine-hundred drawings, and then they were filmed one-by-one and digitally edited together. A few years after making this I decided to go to medical school, to return to the root of the experience.”
