Synopsis

After realising her plant isn’t growing as it should, Olive leaves her home and goes on a quest to find new grounds to let her plant re-root.

Our take

Thick, simple lines; uniform blocks of color. At first, this film appears unassuming. Using the shapeshifting power of animation, artist Ada Güvenir soon changes that—split screens, elevators, revolving doors, and comic-strip panels multiplying and morphing where one rectangular window was before.
