A merman who lives beneath a fairy-tale forest, dying of thirst, seeks out a lonely girl whose tears fill his bathtub with sea water. A dark love story of longing and sharp teeth, made from digitally layered live action, stills and found textures. An animate! commission for Channel 4 and the Arts Council of England.

Peter is a slight lad, solitary, locked out of the woods by his protective grandfather, his only friend a duck. In town, he's bullied. When a wolf menaces the duck - as well as grandfather's fat cat and an ill-flying bird that Peter has befriended - Peter bravely tries to tree the wolf. Grandfather, the townspeople, and the hunters who have antagonized Peter figure in the dénouement.

Stanley, who has the aged and disheveled look of a pensioner living on little, attends lovingly to a large cabbage, the only thing growing in his brick-walled back yard. His wife, meanwhile, is in the kitchen with her cleaver, dispatching red meat and trussed chickens with thunderous whacks. One evening, her eyes settle on a recipe for beef with cabbage, and she throws down the gauntlet. Is it good-bye to the cabbage? Will Stanley have to part with the vegetable of his dreams?
