A cat on a skateboard falls through reality itself. No, you're not high.
Tete is a cat fascinated by art, skateboarding, and her city, Rio de Janeiro. On a late summer afternoon, bored with the monotony of her room, she hits the streets for an adventure on wheels. Rolling past various tourist spots, dribbling around cars, and riding down hills, the kitten finds her peace. However, Tete didn't expect a mysterious portal right in the middle of the skatepark. Distracted while doing a trick, she falls into the hole and travels through different dimensions of animation. Confused and scared of losing the trace of her identity, a new adventure begins for Tete: finding her way back home.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Rio's skate culture meets Brazilian animation renaissance—this is part of a wave of indie South American shorts flooding festivals right now.
The portal appears mid-trick when Tete's fully 'in the zone'—the film suggests flow state literally fractures reality. The identity loss in each dimension mirrors how we perform different selves online.
