As a frustrated songwriter struggles to pen the perfect musical number for an overbearing media mogul, he stumbles upon the magical fantasyland of Flooby-Nooby and becomes entranced by its eccentric, musically-inclined denizens--which include Elvis-impersonating canines and nasally-challenged cab drivers. Oscar-nominated animator Bill Plympton (YOUR FACE, MUTANT ALIENS) takes viewers on another surreal journey through his unique brand of contorted animation in this innovative feature-length film scored to Maureen McElheron's original blend of blues, country, and rock.

Plympton’s whacked-out style isn’t enough to sustain the average viewer’s interest for 72 minutes.

Interesting attempt that only proved that the talented Plympton is better in small doses.
