Synopsis
Alex the Tortoise on the Sea follows the adventures of Alex, a shy wooden tortoise who is afraid of water but curious about the world. Overcoming his fears, he sets off on a sea voyage aboard the historic paddle steamer Waverley, travelling to the Scottish town of Dunoon before making his journey home. A playful short about curiosity, courage and discovering the world despite our limitations, set to the song Robert by Agnes Prygiel, who also directed the film.
