Synopsis

Danny is a shy little duck who never quacks. One day, he embarks on an adventure to find his voice. Along the way, he encounters two cunning foxes who trick him into helping them prepare a meal. When Danny realises he's the main ingredient, he must summon the courage to quack loudly and outsmart the foxes.
