| Description |
Adapted from the book by Shaun Tan, this story of an immigrant in search of a better future is infectious, captivating and full of wonder. A man flees his homeland and journeys across vast seas to arrive in a strange, wondrous new world where giant ships fly through the air and curious creatures abound. There he negotiates dazzling architecture, bizarre foods and foreign tongues to build a new life. On his travels the man meets fellow migrants each with their own tale to tell. |
