We've talked a great deal about Jesus Orellana's cyberpunk animation Rosa in these pages over the last year, the independently animated short making a huge impression with a series of astounding trailers and clips. And now it's time to stop talking and start watching: The complete short is now online and embedded below.
ROSA is an epic sci-fi short film that takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where all natural life has disappeared. From the destruction awakes Rosa, a cyborg deployed from the Kernel project, mankind's last attempt to restore the earth's ecosystem. Rosa will soon learn that she is not the only entity that has awakened and must fight for her survival.
The short-film was created entirely by young comic-artist Jesús Orellana with no budget during a single year.
Watch the short below.

An absolutely beautiful bit of work. Congrats my friend.
Will this be available for hi-def download or purchase? I am definitely up for paying for this to get the best version with all attendant bells and whistles.
I'm trying to trash this marvelous effort, because it's very well done and I commend the animator for his work, but if there's supposed to be no natural life left on the planet, then how are there butterflies and birds?
Dangit, I meant NOT trying to trash this marvelous effort. I apologize for any confusion.
They came about from all the other cybogs that have been killed.
A technical marvel and quite an achievement.
An epic mess as far as the story being comprehensible without the plot description to go from. I kept waiting for a PS3 logo to pop up to the point of distraction too.
Visually though, it's pretty stunning.
