What is an Into Film Club?

Synopsis

A group of animated animal theatre actors perform three short shows for their audience. ‘Baby Delivery’ follows the adventures of a rabbit, pig and duck as they attempt to deliver a new-born baby for a stork but soon discover how difficult it is! ‘The Big Bad Fox’ sees the eponymous creature steal eggs from a chicken, but his plan backfires when they hatch and believe he’s their mother. And the final story, ‘Saving Christmas’, sees the farmyard creatures group together as they try to find a new Santa Claus in time for Christmas. Adapted from co-director Benjamin Renner’s comic books, these are sweet, playful and laugh-out-loud hand-drawn animated stories which challenge preconceptions about identity, suitable for the youngest audiences.
