Boy frees swan he raised

A lonely boy discovers a mysterious egg that hatches a sea creature of Scottish legend.

A human child raised by wolves, must face off against a menacing tiger named Shere Khan, as well as his own origins.

An anthropomorphic 20-something swan of low station and (in his finest moments) medium intelligence gets into trouble ranging from the mundane to the fantastic to the surreal.

Rowing and swimming, a boy explores a watery area inhabited by all sorts of brooding birds. While playing his panpipe, he looks around enquiringly. Until he is attacked by a big mute swan that is only soothed by the boy’s placid panpipe play.

A young disabled boy’s lifelong wish may be realised when his friends encounter a swan by the pond, which tradition says can heal everything. Together, the group of friends decide to make the journey together for this once in a lifetime chance.
