Kurt...
It seems that you want to be moved by a Flash animation...

In order to be emotionally moved, one must care about the subject and what
happens to said subject.
In movies, we are moved by the story and what happens to the characters in
the story.
If we don't care about the charters, we can not be emotionally moved.
That's why action movies are seldom "moving" and dramas always try to be.
In Flash - an animation or site must create an emotional attachment to it's
subject matter before one can be moved by what happens in or to said subject
matter.
Is it possible?
Have you ever been moved by a cartoon?
