The story
Purl has spent years pretending to be part of a lost checker set in the miniature settlement of Under-Sofa. When a roaring vacuum nozzle descends early, she recruits a brass coat button, two googly eyes, and a bent zipper pull to thread every district together into an escape sling. The feature uses fully synthetic stop-motion-style characters, macro textile textures, and no human likenesses.
