Notes to parents: This is a program of those who appreciate the art form of animation! In "J and the Fish," there is a dark but funny ending. "My Grandfather was a Cherry Tree" deals with the passing of grandparents in a poignant and poetic way. A cute mouse is caught in a trap in "Tik-Tak," but comes back to life in a new form. "The Alchemist's Letter" tells a story about regret and redemption.
