Syrenka: Legend of the Warsaw Mermaid is a hand-drawn animated short film featuring a historic symbol of 
Polish identity and resilience, the warrior Mermaid of Warsaw, framed through a Canadian feminist lens. 
On the banks of the Vistula River, a mermaid and a bar matron face off against gendered power. 
Through an emblematic confrontation with a young fisherman, they tear at the net of prevailing misogyny.
