Mary, Billybud and Fumbleton are characters featured in the children's TV show "Wander to Wonder". After the death of the show's main creator, they are left alone in the studio where they continue to make increasingly strange episodes with their slowly disintegrating costumes and growing hunger. Frustration, madness and a pile of dead flies grow. An existential fairy tale that has won over 40 awards at prestigious film festivals or an Oscar nomination.

The film was nominated for the Oscar for Best Animated Short Film, won a BAFTA Film Award, two awards at the Palm Springs International ShortFest and a further 40 awards and 13 nominations.

 

The film is part of The Abyss and can be individually combined with films from Hidden World, What If? and Carousel of Emotions.
