From a musical bird to a wandering Scottish flower, a troupe of imaginative beings spring forth in a new short film created for Ffern, a fragrance maker based in Somerset. The company tapped London-based creative content studio Pal to create “A Ffern Fairtyale” celebrating storytelling, imagination, and the seasons.

Pal organized several workshops around the U.K. in partnership with Ffern, attended by more than 100 children who told stories, made paintings, and conceived of characters inspired by folklore and springtime. Through a series of imagined beings like the Flower Thing, Naomi the Flute Bird, and the Frost Queen, we glimpse youthful inner worlds—no screens here—brought to life in costumes made by Clarisse d’Arcimoles and Frank Gallacher.
