|summary=Its initial appearance as an Aussie [[The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame|The Wind in the Willows]] soon gives way to a tale for adults packed with entertainment, insight, pathos and a satirical punch. It's been called ''a ménage a trois that involved ''Watership Down'', ''True Grit'', and ''Mad Max'','' but on this evidence, that's a good thing.

Albert the Duck-Billed Platypus lives in an Adelaide zoo but knows there's more to life than this. There must be as he's heard the stories. Somewhere beyond the cages is Old Australia, a land of dreams where there are no zoos and no human captors, just animals who are free to govern themselves and live in perpetual peace and happiness. That's a world that Albert wants to be a part of and so he escapes, realising that for the first time in his short life his future is in his own webbed paws.
