Director/Animator DON HERTZFELD in person!

In Don Hertzfeld's latest, multi-award-winning animation, a series of dark and troubling events force Bill to reckon with the meaning of his life - or lack thereof.

"...genius...Hertzfeldt's offering, EVERYTHING WILL BE OK, takes the prize... In his trademark 2-D animation, a stick figure enacts quotidian rituals - fruit buying, commuting - with a growing sense of ennui, existential angst, and eventually insanity. It's hellish - and moving, too." (Nina Maclaughlin, Boston Phoenix)

"Hilarious, touching, frightening, and wildly cinematic, Don Hertzfeldt's latest short continues down the same fourth-wall-breaking path he set himself on with Rejected and the trilogy from the first Animation Show. But this time the non-sequiturs and meta-cinematic effects are not used to reveal and expand the filmmaking apparatus so much as they serve to simulate an everyman named Bill's mental collapse...Hertzfeldt's stick-figure drawing style may be propelling him into experimentation outside of the animator's traditional realms, but it's also the secret weapon that makes his films as widely relatable as they are... Anyone who's ever felt a bit out-of-sync or depressed is likely to see themselves in Bill, and become appropriately unnerved when the representation of his anxiety begins to overwhelm even the narrative conventions Hertzfeldt had previously established."
