Need A Little Help?
2D Animated Short Film
Written and Directed by: Brian Finlay
Foggy is a small turtle who never comes out of his shell. He watches the tide come in and out on the shores of the reversing falls in Saint John. His anxiety makes the world outside seem too big, too scary. One day a laid back seagull named S.J stumbles upon Foggy and helps him see that sometimes very small steps forward can lead to big journey's travelled.
