Julius Drost

Butty is the clumsy household robot of a family and tries to do his best every day. When he blows up the oven and destroys the lasagne, he ruins daughter Ally's long-awaited birthday party. Her mother is furious and tells him to fix it, but he only makes things worse. The mother tells him to go away. Butty is so ashamed that he leaves his family.

This story sounds too crazy to be true, and yet it is. For three years, Berlin film students Julius and Moritz poured their hearts into their animated short Butty, hoping it would launch their careers. But when a festival disqualifies their film, they make a shocking discovery: Butty is already circulating online under the name of an American filmmaker. As they dig deeper, they uncover the unbelievable rise of a mysterious “Mr. F.”, a man hailed as the next Walt Disney who built his success on a stolen film and a web of lies.
