Furry Astronauts

What are those strange fire arrows rising into the heavens? Join the four animals on their crazy adventure in space!
A hedgehog, hare, mole and an owl are four friends who meet on the edge of the forest to explore an almost forgotten spaceport. When they see a rocket launch, they are stunned. None of them has the slightest idea what it is, and they come out with many crazy explanations. Thankfully they meet a clever mouse who has spent its life with the scientists at the station and explains rockets and other space knowledge with them.
Featuring a unique combination of puppets and virtual CGI world which will take you to a dream world and with a blink of an eye, you will find yourselves in the space!
