Synopsis

Katerina, the only goose on her pond, feels lonely and often gazes at her reflection in a shiny car, imagining another goose. One snowy Christmas night, she notices the reflection is gone and spots a man with a goose-sized bag. Believing he has her companion, Katerina chases him, inadvertently thwarting a bank robbery. Celebrated as a heroine, she is rewarded with a new friend, Charlie the gander, bringing joy and companionship to her pond.
