Synopsis: | The mischievous Raven is bored on a beach where nothing ever happens, and even the sea doesn't move. He sets off across the sea where he meets weird and wonderful creatures like the Fogwoman and the Man who sits on the Tide, who he manages to get to stand up, releasing the waves and the tides for the very first time. This creation story celebrates curiosity, and the big things that small people can achieve. | |||||
