The film establishes itself in the form of perhaps a premise of a larger narrative. It employs interesting visuals, marked by their skill and thought, for the same. An anthropomorphic figure is shown as riding a fly, headed towards an unknown destination which is gradually revealed to the viewer. Once the flyer and their fly has entered a cave, the presence of more such figures, riding their own respective creature, is introduced.
The animation of the film is dreamy and exhibits potential for its further development into a longer version, thereby taking the intrigued viewer deeper into the story. Additionally, along with the visuals that develop on the forefront of the narrative, there are also events unfolding in the background of this flight - figures of unknown origin, an echo of the anthropomorphic form, but massive in size as compared to the protagonist, are making their presence felt. They too have secrets and tales of their own to share with the audience. Any viewer who interacts with Chamber of the Sun would find themselves engaged, and left wanting for more.
