OVERBOARD!

Category: Edition 2020

At first glance, Chameleon and Kiwi are a strange pair: while the former draws attention with his changing colours, the balding and perpetually frightened Kiwi shies away from any attention at all. But when an approaching storm sweeps away the roof over their heads, there is no room for differences: they must help each other to get to the boat waiting on shore! This is no simple task, however! The Ark is only for selected couples and Chameleon, with his gaping tongue, and cross-eyed Kiwi certainly aren't one of them.
