Synopsis

Squirrel's babies can't sleep due to the noisy woodland creatures. Seeking help, Squirrel visits Owl, who introduces her to his 'Silence Catcher'. Together, they embark on a journey to find moments of quiet in the forest, capturing the hush inside a hollow tree, the stillness when an acorn drops, and the silence between lightning and thunder. With these collected pockets of peace, Squirrel hopes to bring a little bit of hush back home.
