Capybaras

6.9(4)202411m1

A female capybara and her cubs are fleeing from a hunter who has settled in the lagoon where they live. Their search for shelter takes them to a nearby chicken coop, but the chickens, seeing their routine threatened, reject the capybaras and react by setting boundaries to keep them at a distance. The curiosity of the youngest, a puppy and a chick, will make them transgress the boundaries and take some risks in order to get to know each other. The situation will lead to an unexpected end that will change the lives of both species and, perhaps, that of some other animals.

    The arrival of a duck hunter at their lagoon unsettles a family of capybara who swim to the far side of the water towards the yard where the farmer keeps his chickens.
