Enjoy this dark comedy short film... A father possum reads his kids a story that’s an alphabet of the most dangerous animal of all – HUMANS! Written and Directed by the talented James Cunningham! Synopsis --------------- Inspired by the Edward Gorey classic, this black-comedy for kids and parents alike is a hilarious and brutal alphabet of death and mayhem exacted upon animals by ignorant humans. 30 CGI animals were meticulously crafted and killed by a team of 44 students at Media Design School. It is a film about the most dangerous animal of all – humans, as told by a father possum to his kids. It is inspired by the Edward Gorey book The Gashlycrumb Tinies and is an alphabet of inadvertent murder of innocent animals.
