What is Cercle about?

Circle, Square and Triangle are playing hide-and-seek, but Circle has made one important rule: nobody may hide behind the waterfall. Triangle wants to prove that he is not afraid of the dark, so he ignores the rule and disappears into the shadowy cave. Soon, the shapes become difficult to tell apart—and something else may be hiding in the darkness. A funny, mysterious story about friendship, bravery and the unexpected consequences of breaking the rules.
