Synopsis

Joseph Kaye's father tells him that things are going to change. Left alone at home, Joseph notices everyday objects transforming in bizarre ways: the kettle becomes a cat, the washbasin grows feet, and the armchair turns into a gorilla. As his imagination runs wild, Joseph grapples with the uncertainty of impending change. When his parents return with his new baby sister, he realises the true nature of the change, embracing his new role as a big brother.
