PIPAeCARACOLSite
series 57x7min, adventure
In each episode, Pipa and Snail are driven by curiosity, desire, and their own reflections, diving into fun adventures through the forest where they live. But what they see as a forest is actually just a fantastic garden, where time is a flying whale and stars are born as butterflies.  

While Pipa follows her heart, Snail tries to make sense of the world with reason. But both are simply children, eager to have endless fun in adventures inspired by philosophy. And in these journeys with no limits to imagination, many questions arise.  

Can we go back to yesterday? How can something be scary to me but not to you? Are we still best friends if we don’t like the same things? If words are invented, can I create my own? Where do I go when I sleep?  

A poetic and sensitive series, made to laugh, wonder, and feel.
