Sinekatalog’s take
A country couple and their shepherd endure drought, flood, a monstrous bear, hunters and tourists during a bizarre few days. The stop-motion short is dryly comic and full of unexpected disasters. Delightfully odd for lovers of British-style animated humor.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
