Description
An environmental disaster forces some wild animals from the forest into a shelter with some domesticated animals. This shelter, a haus kuk , or kitchen, is in a small fishing village in Lae, Papua New Guinea. Each animal has a role to play and a place to sleep, but hard work is part of everyday life. When he loses his entire family, Loki Enough, a little green tree frog, moves into the haus kuk . Loki develops an Elvis persona that puts on an act, sings and dances in the haus kuk . This act helps Loki to hide his sadness and insecurities. Loki doesn't like working. He adds trickery to the performance to get him free meals, but soon the other animals see through Loki's tricks. The more he tries, the more the haus kuk tenants resent Loki. One day, Loki is upset because no-one gives him food, so he disrespects Kande Kaks, the oldest and most responsible timekeeper of the haus kuk . This incident puts Loki's life in danger. Nonetheless, Kande Kaks takes Loki under his wing and teaches Loki about kindness, love and the benefits of hard work. Soon, a special friendship begins and harmony is restored in the haus kuk .
