A witty, contemporary fable about a moose whose fearful nature leads to him missing out on life. While his friends bear and beaver embrace adventure and the great outdoors, moose sits on the sidelines. But one day he sets sail and finally has an adventure. Washing up on a desert island, he learns resilience and makes a friend. A story with a strong theme for our times, all delivered with Oldland's signature humour.
