Synopsis

A little penguin leaves home in search of the ice-cream that appeared in his dream. Upon arriving in the warm land, the penguin finds the footprints that might lead him to the object of his desire. He trails the footprints only to discover that they belong to an odd looking creature. This film explores a variety of genre including S. F., comedy and romance in a short given time. Sparkling with wit, this stop-motion animation has adorable characters. Our hero embarks on a long journey to fulfil his appetite but in the end bravely chooses love over food. (KIM Eui-Chan)
