This living thing is called "a thing lost" by a narrator.

Sean noticed that the creature was lost and obsolete. Because of the indifference of others, he tried to find its owner and other sources but could not find the source. Pione is Sean's faithful friend and explains that it does not actually belong to anywhere. When asking for help from government agencies, he encountered living things, warned that departments exist only to hide or forget what they can not classify, and got business cards with arrows.

Through the movie, boys and lost things wandered and asked who knew who was lost. One word that resonates with us is that when the boy mentioned about the lost item's house, "This is one of the places you are looking for it". In today's society, everything is not black and white. In our fast-paced society, people forget unique things

When the boy found something that was lost for the first time, we thought it meant that he was lost. He looks like a lost person, and he actually does not have a place in the world. Not only was he ignored by others, but his real friends at the time seemed to be missing. Throughout the story, he tries to find someone who accepts lost things like him. We believe that this means that he is trying to push back what was lost to where they do not belong. When he brought it to the dark receptionist he thought it would solve the problem of where he found what he lost. This person ultimately shows that there is a place to belong with other people

We believe that this short film also discusses a wide range of by-products of industrialization. These include creativity and loss of humor. Lost Thing depicts a world where unique things do not belong. They are lost. The hero, the one who lives with his family is an ordinary person. In this case, "ordinary people" refers to those who follow boring procedures everyday, those who lose a part of their special life. But when no one can, he can see what is lost.

In adapting to movies, the Lost Thing story continues to explore the world where people have lost their ability to see truly ambitions or the ability to identify and evaluate certain special and special things. This movie uses the depressed feeling of a boy in the memory of "lost thing". In his miserable world, he is the only person who noticed this strange lost creature, and is the only one who is keen on finding places to belong. But after seeing the magical world of lost things, the boy was left behind closed doors looking to the future.
