A short film about a small tardigrade on a big journey.

Join our little tardigrade hero as he faces the dangers of deep oceans, arctic tundras, scorching deserts, and even outer space…

Tardigrades, colloquially known as “water bears”, are eight-legged micro-animals that can withstand nearly any environment. They are one of the most fascinating creatures on our planet… so we´re making a movie about them!

Inspired by musician Cosmo Sheldrake’s “Tardigrade Song”, we decided to make an animated short film showcasing a lovable little water bear and the world as he sees it. From the smallest microscapes to the vast expanse of space, we follow the water bear’s journey through dangers and wonders.
