In search of Silence
The quarantine goes on and Peter the porcupine is on his own. He tries to fill up his time with things to do, but as the days go by, he's running out of ideas. So he decides to just do nothing. This isn't easy to do: thousands of thoughts come and go inside his head and won't leave him be. Will he be able to find silence?
Arnold’s discovery
Until a few months ago, nuts were Arnold the opossum's favorite food, he could eat them every day and never get tired. Or so he believed. One day, the unexpected happened. The thought of eating just one more nut gave him the shivers. So he decided to reinvent himself. Everything was changing and perhaps it was also the perfect moment to find new versions of himself.
The world turned upside down
Since Lucy declared the quarantine, the world of the brown opossum family had turned upside down. Suddenly, the little opossums didn't have to go to school and had to stay in the family tree 24 hours a day instead. And since Mom and Pop opossum were working, they couldn't make noise or jump or run about. To fight boredom, the little opossums began to imagine other worlds where anything is possible.
