“A duck fell in love with a rock. It was a large rock, about the size of a duck actually, that was situated off the bank of the river, a little past the old elm.”
The Duck is a short 2D animated film about a Duck that falls in love with a rock.
Adapted from Ben Loory’s incredibly charming short story from his book
Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day.
It was recently read on This American Life’s Valentine’s Day special, at which moment my brain began to spin in my skull as I was taken hold by a fantastic moment of creative clarity. This story had to be made, by me, urgently.
This film sounds awesome and the Director (Simon Cottee) has some brilliant past work so I am sure this film will be just as good, if not better.
