Thanks Jean for posting this. I have seen I, Pet Goat II before on BPEarthwatch, but was unfamiliar with all of the symbolism. Joshua went on to college, and pretty much disappeared from view, until he surfaced again yesterday and suggested this interesting video for us. As I watched this video, I also saw an explanation of the symbolism, which I thought could be important to our understanding of this amazing creation, and so I included it, as well.
It is a 3D animation (A field i have studied) with a plethora of obvious and hidden symbolism of various topics such as religion, politics, finance, the future of humanity and so on. Very interesting and beautiful and worth several watch throughs. Its only about 7-8 minutes but wow was I impressed by it. Many people will get different interpretations of its meaning based on their emotional charged and attitudes of live in relation to their belief systems but overall, even for those not well educated and logical in mind, it is a stunning visual of surreal and unsettling imagery that is sure to entertain you at the very least.
I Pet Goat II: The Symbolic Meaning
It is not every day that something is released into the world with more meaning and information than even those who created it can comprehend. As is often the case in recent times, everything is created with a specific purpose, interpretation, or influence in mind. It is not often that you come across a piece of art-work that resonates with you on an almost unknown level, that sticks with and enlightens you, all while you are hardly scratching the surface of the possibilities of its interpretations.
It’s not often a short film like I, Pet Goat II, is released. Published by Heliofant, an independent computer animation studio out of Montreal, Canada in 2012, I, Pet Goat II, is truly a one of a kind short film, and nothing short of a masterpiece. Packed full of esoteric, occult, and conspiracy symbolism, the film has been a great point of controversy for many who have viewed it over the years. It comes to us from the incredibly creative mind of Louis Lefebvre, who began working on the project by himself in parts, sometime around 2005. In 2008 he took on the project full time, selling his house to get it off the ground, and bringing in freelancers, musicians, and even dancers to help put together this masterpiece. Lefebvre previously did work on The Lord of The Rings; The Two Towers, as well as Beowulf before moving to Montreal to work freelance.
Since its debut, the short film has won numerous awards, and its creator and director has been featured in many interviews for podcasts such as Extraordinary Year with Tim Bravo, and Alex Jones’ Infowars. Recently I, Pet Goat II has found itself in the spotlight once again as many have made a sort of prophetic connection between the film and the burning of the Notre Dame cathedral, but we’ll dive into that a bit later.
So, after spending months diving into the deep depths of symbols and influences imbedded within this short film, I am going to try to give as close to an accurate analysis as I can. The thing is, this film was created to be openly and broadly interpreted. It all depends on the depth of your own knowledge and ability to think freely. There are literally hundreds of interpretations that can be found for this film online, but they all have certain common points or themes, and I’m going to hit on those here. We’re also going to get into the creators’ interpretations of it, to try to get a better understanding of his creative intentions.
“When I started the film I wasn’t, you know, that queued into a lot of different things. Keep in mind this was 2004 when I started, and I didn’t even know 9/11 was an inside job like I didn’t realize that at that time. At that time, for me, it was just such a significant event that I put it in there, and it was such a world-changing event. And for me, this film was a commentary on what I saw around me, but as I did this film, I kept discovering more and more and more things and just layering them in there. But also realizing that I had put symbols in the film that I understood on a certain level when I started, but my understanding of those symbols progressed as I went along. A lot of it came visually first and foremost. It was just like a beautiful thing, and a gut visceral, like an artistic process, like a painter or something like that. I would see symbols, and I would try not to censor what I was seeing, even if sometimes I found the symbols little shocking. Like the sexual imagery juxtaposed with the Christ figure was a little shocking to me honestly.”
The title I, Pet Goat II is thought to be a tribute to the children’s storybook The Pet Goat, which was read to George W. Bush by a class of children at Emma E. Booker Elementary School in Sarasota County, Florida on September 11, 2001. While listening to the chil
