French Roast - animated short

Continuing on with the theme of animated shorts with little or no dialogue, below is an animated short called 'French Roast'.
It is in french and has only minimum dialogue. I was able to follow the dialogue quite easily even though it is in French. This is another example of a film being done very well visually, so that little or no dialogue is required to move the story along.
I did think that the ending was a little predictable, which is a shame.
I found the character and set design very appealing. The use of only one location is a good way to economically produce a short, and that worked quite well here.
My only criticism was the reasonably predictable ending.
