Mr Sun & Miss Universe

When superstar Mr. Sun sees his lustrous golden locks starting to fall out, he embarks on a journey through the cosmos where, with the help of Miss Universe, he reassesses his relationship with mortality.

By day, superstar Mr. Sun is adored by many; by night, he admires himself in the mirror. But one day, as he runs his fingers through his golden locks, a tangle of hairs sticks to his fingers. Is he… going bald? The room goes dark; he collapses. The next moment, he’s floating through space in this colorfully animated graduation film. He’s confused and angry, but Miss Universe encourages him to accept the natural cycle of life and decay.
