 Where do I even begin? Although the mapping itself is a bit old-styled, the storyboard is simply incredible, featuring all sorts of subtle details, as well as plenty of gorgeous transitions and effects. There is a bit of "flashing" from sudden transitions, but it is done rarely and tastefully so as to not detract from the map itself. The skin choice is very well thought-out too, providing translucent hitcircles so the player can get a better look at the background ;)

 What's there to be said about this one that isn't shown in the video itself? The smooth transitions are complimented by some very lovely special effects, in addition to having lyrics subtly displayed near the bottom right. Combine that with some very nice flow in the hit objects themselves, and I wouldn't hesitate to call this beatmap a masterpiece.
