Three kingdoms, floating separately in space, can each see the other nearby kingdoms but have no means to communicate or visit. Each has developed a fanatical obsession for a specific color for clothing, architecture, and even plant life: one blue, one red, one golden. A forbidden inter-kingdom romance and a war of conquest ensues when a means of travel between the kingdoms is abruptly found. This short film was created for Expo 86, the World Fair in Vancouver in 1986.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Expo 86's theme was 'Transportation and Communication'—this film literally invented both to cause problems.
Bob Rogers later founded BRC Imagination Arts, designing theme park experiences worldwide—this was basically his audition tape.
