BOOM

What do you do when a volcano begins to erupt on your island? You flee! But what if you are a bird couple and you have four eggs to protect? These avians do their best, but the father is a birdbrain, and the mother turns out to be not all that smart, either. Their antics are funny, but in the short film BOOM, you also get caught up in the danger. Will the family survive the eruption? Will any of them? This student film from the French animation school École des Nouvelles Images won quite a few awards over the last couple of years.
