Polka - 4min - 2017

SYNOPSIS

Polka, the eccentric visionary designer who introduced the world to the polka dot, finds her legacy in jeopardy when dots are declared ‘dead’ by the industry digest. She must evolve to survive, but breaking free of her circular empire is no simple task. To prevail, she must rise above all that she knows and see the world from a different point of view.

A collaboration of love by Sky Pie Studio & Refinery 43.
