| Description |
Helena and the Journey of the Hello is a classical style fairytale in a crossed line conversation with contemporary times. The old world charm of the illustrated story is given a digital twist as unexpected parts of the set and costumes open like pages in a book. Children and adults are amazed at what is possible with a mobile phone, a coat and an old iron bed as they are taken on the Journey of the Hello. |
