Metaphysics: a branch of philosophy concerned with explaining the fundamental nature of being and the world.
How can we tell what is real and what is not?
3D animation, for example, is becoming more and more sophisticated with each passing year. In this short film combining live action and, you've guessed it, animation, one young man sits down to write a childhood friend a letter, describing just how this state of affairs came about.

Plenty of food for thought, then, in this short film from Auke Rick Akkerman and David Oldenburger.
