(VHS VIDEO) Comes with Discussion Guide. Five short funny animated films comment ruefully on our relationship with the natural world. A series of delightful award winning animated films by Nick Hilligoss. POSSUM'S REST. It was a quiet neighborhood until the humans moved in disrupting sleeping hours, what's a possum to do? LOWER ORDERS. An eclectic and enterprising group of city critters feeds on garbage from a local restaurant, but they learn a lesson about life on the food chain. TURTLE WORLD. With imagery from traditional mythology, a sea turtle swims through space as a world evolves on her back. CELL ANIMATION. A free spirited artistic soul gets thrown in jail for going overboard with painting on city streets and private property. With the use of his imagination and talent, he is able to create is own escape. BANJO FROGS. Strolling through the garbage dump a frog picks up an abandoned banjo and find he's a natural. However, his style just doesn't fit in with a frog trio he happens upon. He slinks away, only to find that there is a place for him after all.
