It&#8217;s from a few years ago &#8211; 2004 &#8211; but I noticed on <a href="http://www.notcot.org"><span style="color:#ff6600;">NOTCOT</span></a> that the full thing has been put up on Vimeo. And what a beautiful thing that is&#8230;</p>

<p>Directed by Australian <a href="http://www.danielaskill.com/"><span style="color:#00ccff;">Daniel Askill</span></a>, &#8220;We Have Decided Not To Die&#8221; is wordless and visually stunning. It&#8217;s austere and stark and one of my favourite things ever. I&#8217;m so pumped that I found it online, and that you can all check it out too now:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Vodpod videos no longer available.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">If patience isn&#8217;t your thing, or, like me, you just like to watch trailers for things you&#8217;ve just watched to see how they match up with the complete product, then <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHslQ3JVJ7U&amp;fmt=18"><span style="color:#ff0000;">check out the film&#8217;s equally awesome trailer. </span></a></p>
