A short film about failure that doesn't flinch away from what that actually costs. The animation is spare and the pacing is patient, which means every quiet moment lands like a confession. By the end, you're not watching a story, you're sitting with someone else's grief, and there's no music to soften it. This isn't a film built to comfort you. It's built to make you understand what it feels like to have tried everything and lost anyway.
Failing marking me (5-ten no Watashi) is a single-episode anime film made by Ayumi Daito as a graduation project at Tama Art University.
