Released in Croatian theaters last weekend, the film inspired by the works of Aesop and La Fontaine, the film turns on Ket, a fun-loving cricket who meets Antoinette, an ant from a colony where music is forbidden and hard work is the only virtue. The two get along immediately, but when Antoinette tells Ket and the other crickets that winter is coming and they won't survive the change in weather, the musical bugs ignore her warnings, until she begins to communicate her warnings through song. Before her message can spread, Antoinette is kidnapped by a villainous ant who intends to marry her.
