Repeatedly I have been convinced by the strength that the audience has in bringing the experience that they are going to have with them. It's something to do with the complexity of experiences, and the impossibility of completely designing the experience someone will have. It seems that the mind is most satisfied when it has the story fits exactly to it's own experiences. This probably has something to do with mirror neurons and empathy which we seem to talk a lot about.
Here is one of my favorite example of giving the audience just enough dots to make their own stories, attach their own memories and build upon their own experiences. For these reasons this short film, touches a lot of people. People love and don't exactly know why. It's a story, it's a journey, it's music and it's poetic.
