Synopsis
An "epic" adventure featuring a diamond guy, a dog fish and a boot. Watch and see what happens! Audacious, bold and somewhat bewildering, director Amy Lockhart uses cutouts, drawings and collage (captured and manipulated as digital multi-plane animation) to conjure up her whimsical world and to tell her magical environmental fairy tale.
