Synopsis
The enchanting story of a little boy in a housing estate, where even the world’s greatest adventure can take place if you listen hard enough. Is the neighbour hanging a picture? Or is it a buffalo stampede, or even a tribe of cannibals! A short, but painstakingly animated feast for the eyes and ears, ‘The Concrete Jungle’ is about a child’s boundless imagination and their infinite ability to create new worlds from even the most mundane of situations.
