Based on a local legend from Papua New Guinea, where the director was born, IDODO retells the story of how reef fish got their beautiful colouring. Long ago the fish transformed into humans and came onto land to celebrate and dance. Once the sun set, they hurried back into the sea, leaving behind a big mess. Curious as to who had been occupying the village in their absence, the villagers of one island plan to find out who those uninvited visitors were. What they would soon discover, leaves them amazed and mesmerized. The animated short film is a dedicated collaboration between artists from Papua New Guinea and Switzerland, rooted in cultural co- creation and brings the unique cultural heritage of Papua New Guinea, to an international audience.
