Bad Bulls is a puppet-animated parody of the spaghetti western films of the 60s and 70s. A classic cowboy story; a hero, his dog, a scary gang and a pretty damsel in distress. Almost all the characters are bulls or chickens, except for Hot Dog who is a dog and narrator.

On a frosty winter's morning, Hemulen wakes the sleeping Moomins to prepare them for the approaching Christmas. But the Moomintrolls, who normally go dormant during the winter months, have never celebrated Christmas and have no idea what the holiday means. Their confusion and delight in the white winter landscape lead to a journey of discovery, where they are forced to understand the true meaning of Christmas.

After a perilous journey across the Mediterranean, Eva (12) and Rami (6) finally reach Europe. Separated from their parents during the crossing, they end up in a refugee camp. Weeks turn into months. Rami, longing for their parents, believes they're in the mermaid Vegas world, a safe place their mother sang about in a lullaby. Eva, fearing they drowned, dismisses this as fantasy.One evening, Rami sneaks out to the beach and spots a luminescent mareel in the sea, which his mother said marked the entry to Vega's world. As he wades in, he grows a mermaids tail and jubilantly calls for Eva. Convinced, she joins him, and together they dive into Vegas world, determined to find their parents.
