RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The main research that was held was about the Harlequin syndrome itself and how rare diseases are addressed.
CHALLENGE: The creative is a juxtaposition of the two opposing sides of Harlequin - one is the light-hearted comical character and the other is the serious medical condition. To integrate those sides of the same character yet different characteristics and not ironize or victimize people suffering from the syndrome was the most difficult part.
