A fat hummingbird gets exiled, then becomes the hero nobody expected. Five minutes of pure chaos.
Jerry, an awkwardly plump hummingbird, desperately tries to fit in with his siblings. But more often than not, he only weighs them down, literally. After accidentally destroying the family nest, Jerry is exiled to an old dead tree, never to be seen or heard from again. Family always sticks together though. So when a hungry house cat attempts to turn his siblings into a three-course meal, Jerry must set his sorrows aside and be the bird he was born to be in order to save his family.

The 5-minute runtime is actually strategic — it's designed for festival circuits and pre-feature theatrical shorts, a dying art form.
