Description:


    A starving squirrel and rat come across a discarded pizza slice. The duo’s greed disrupts the natural order of the park. Simultaneously, across the street from the park, a bank heist is taking place in the human world. The two worlds collide in an uproarious escape for both rodents and bank robbers. The story culminates in a full-on car chase with police and park animals in hot pursuit. The pigeons save the day, restoring order to both worlds, for now.
