Oh, Highlander
“From blood, the poppies bloomed — and from blood, remembrance grew.”
Set against the serene beauty of the Polish Highlands, a land rich in tradition and quiet pride, this animated short whispers of a peace too easily broken. When the dark tide of war slips over the mountains and into these close-knit homes, even the simplest lives are forever changed.
At the heart of the story is a humble highlander – a father and husband – called away from everything he loves. As he departs, his wife and young son are left to navigate a world suddenly emptied of its centre, their days shadowed by absence and uncertainty.
This is not a tale of battles and generals, but of the quiet toll war takes on those left behind. It is a meditation on love, loss, and the silent strength of family in the face of forces beyond their control.
Through evocative visuals and tender storytelling, ‘Oh, Highlander’ invites you to witness the ripples of conflict where they strike deepest – in the hearts of the forgotten.
