Orgesticulanismus by Mathieu Labaye

A few years ago, Mind Game gave me this feeling. But since that it's the first time that an animation stuns me this way. In a visual, technical and emotional point of vue this film is really great. Mathieu Labaye, a very talented animator, made this animation in tribute to his father, who was paralysed by a sclerosis at 29 and deceased at 55. It's from an interview of him that the film begins, starting by the handicap, motionless, to reach the abstract and extreme motion. Very original and experimental, the animation is the very technique to sublime the motion, with an infinite freedom of evolution. The middle part of the film, featuring a crazy dance, is really stunning (the work on sound effects and music is great too), and just for this scene you must see this video.
