In the midst of a searing heatwave, two little children find a way to cool everyone down!

In the summertime a quirky crowd occupies a Greek Island beach. As the sun gets increasingly hotter people get lost in their petty personal problems. Negativity, stress and madness engulfs everyone. A little girl escapes this troubled mindset and encourages everyone to jump in the water, appreciate life and have fun!Heatwave is a 7 minute comedy animated film aimed at all ages. Playfully animated in a hybrid techique between cut out, claymation and thousands of replacements pieces the film explores our ridiculous worries and anxieties as well as the importance of embracing the positive and being brave.
