An Eye for an Eye: Using Signs and Symbols to Show Timeline after 9/11

If you considered the just-posted animated infographic “Lisbon Treaty” too textual or too direct, you will definitely love this one.

“An Eye for an Eye” is a satirical short film using only visual signs and symbols in order to tell story. The movie was inspired by Gandhi’s quote: “An eye for an eye will quickly leave the whole world blind“. The film glimpses into the timeline of events that have unfolded since the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York City. It explores the conflict between the West and Islam from a satirical point of view, in order to make the point that 2 wrongs do not make a right. The main visual concept is based on retro computer games to show how little peoples lives are worth in this pointless war, and that no sides have won since 9/11.
