The Man Who Hated The World (Animated Short Story) | Einzelgänger

The Man Who Hated The World (Animated Short Story) In a dirty prison cell, there lived a man who dedicated his whole life to isolating himself from the world. As opposed to most prisoners, he wasn’t put there against his will. This man voluntarily lived in a prison cell, knowing that he could walk out anytime he wanted. Nevertheless, he never tried.“Why should I?” he told himself every time this annoying voice tried to persuade him to leave. “The world is a disgusting place,” he uttered. “And in here, at least I’m safe”.He was a loner, without a doubt. But he didn’t choose solitude because he loved his own company. He did it because he hated the world.The Man Who Hated The World is a (motivational) short story about a man who suffers from severe existential angst. On top of that, he is tormented by an annoying voice that tries to persuade him to leave his cell. Even though he hates almost everything that the world has to offer, he does like the sea. Unfortunately, he is too scared to go out and visit.Rather, he enjoys the safety of his cell, and his resolve is strengthened by the misery that overcomes the people around him. But is he truly as safe as he thinks he is?Credits:Written by: Einzelgänger Animation & narration: Einzelgänger Story editing & advice: Fleur Marie VazMusic used:The Tides Somnolent Quincas Moreira Mariposa The 126ers Rage Myuu Lurking ShadowsSupport the channel: ✔️ PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/einzelgangerco ✔️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/einzelgangster ✔️ Bitcoin: 3HQnEz1LQ4G6dqN2LdZgzc7qoJjJCyWjTC (Donated BTC and want in the credits?
