Purity

Synopsis

Chupoo, who lives in a tree on a lonely floating elephant, is habitually woken each morning by a cheeky sausage. After this startling start to the day Chupoo spends the rest of it causing havoc and destruction wherever he goes. Through the chaos the resident creatures pull together using a specially designed mechanism to bring Chupoo his morning shower. As soon as his shower is over trained bats fly the sleeping Chupoo back up his tree to bed, only to see the rigmarole start all over again the very next morning.
