Windy Day

Dir. by Jan Pinkava

The phone’s screen becomes a looking-glass that peers into a stylized virtual forest. Music plays, with the Django-esque, jazzy feel of an old-time Paris bistro. Move the phone up, down, right, left, and you can see more and more of this colorful world. Try it yourself in the Google Spotlight Stories app for Android and iOs.
