The Piñata King

2017 UK / Duration: 4 mins
Directed by: Paul Storrie, Chris Lee, Charlie Kwai

In Mexico, no child’s birthday party is complete without a piñata. Piñatas made by the Piñata King, along with his family, friends and most of his fellow townspeople, are unique pieces of crafted artisanship. For some kids, the beauty of the piñata is worth more than the sweet goodies hidden inside. For others, it’s still all about the goodies.
