Breakfast

Synopsis

We often present our children with toys and books that tell joyful tales of animals living in peace on farms, surrounded by fields and forests.

When a child's room is left empty an ordinary tape player and a well used puzzle come to life and start to tell the truth behind the pretty pictures used to lull us into believing where animals spend their lives today.
