Overview

Part of the 

strand.

A radical new animated vision of a dystopian future probes our fears about social control and liberation. Imagine a world in which difference is erased.

This is a world where everyone wears a paper bag over their head. But when rumours spread of a place without masks, pressures mount towards revolution.

Using jaw-dropping video game animation technology, Schirkoa is a unique and timely nightmare.
