We Can't Live Without the Cosmo is a Russian animation by Bronzit. The story revolves around two astronauts who train and work hard to make it into space, but an accident occurs that cost one of them their life. The other astronaut than goes into a deep depression. What makes this story so emotional is how there is no speak in the story at all and only a few words of text to give context to the scene. The animation isn't that that detailed but the the way the backgrounds change out in certain places give the story a feel that only an animation could accomplish. For example at one part the two astronauts are jumping on a bed and the background changes to space to give the sense that there is no gravity. Another unique transition is a wide shot of the night sky but as the sense grows sadder theaters turn into snowflakes. this is something the highly detailed animation couldn't get away with and that's way sometimes less is more.
