The Tale of How
2006, English. Directed by Markus Wormstorm & Ree Treweek & Jannes Hendrikz.
This lavishly embellished, comically operetta CGI fantasy story takes place in the Indian Ocean, where a flock of “piranha birds” has settled on the back of an octopus. When an octopus is starved, it feeds on birds on its back, but because it is already threatened with extinction, they decide to send a bottle across the sea with a call for help.
