"that ate."
-Delaney, lettrbox review
" We didn’t stop laughing at this from start to finish. It has that magical effect of making you walk around all day with a smile on your face.
The dialogue was incredibly written and the animation style was amazing… there’s also never been a better bug’s voice done on film."
-Sundance Jury citation
A dissatisfied marriage, a secret crush, and workplace fantasies come to a head in a diner run by a mole with a hot ass.
