Through stop motion animation, Mimi is a little mouse girl who is made from the paper napkins from a wedding anniversary party. We follow her journey in this paper napkin world as she tries to navigate her confusion and frustrations of what is going on and through the help of an old man memories come flooding back in to play, as Mimi is an old lady who remembers fragments of her life through a cloud of dementia, through the help of Elder her husband, against a confusing backdrop of their 60th Wedding Anniversary party. A poetic and beautiful vignette of romance, love and loss. The characters based on the real life drawings on a paper napkin by the filmmakers Mother who suffered from dementia.
