A desperate battle to grab the most precious commodity from the clutches of those who would deprive others of it.

エメットは、真面目を絵に描いたような性格で見た目は至って普通という、どこを取っても平均的なLEGO(R)のミニフィギュア。にもかかわらず、どういうわけか人知を超えた能力を誇り、世界を救う鍵となる人物だと周囲から勘違いされてしまう。困惑する中、謎めいたグループのメンバーに迎え入れられた上に、バットマンやスーパーマンも入り乱れる巨悪退治の冒険に出ることに。救世主やヒーローの自覚もなければ世界を救う覚悟もない彼は、行く先々で大騒動を巻き起こしていく。

Adapted and directed by Marc Craste, Varmints is a 24-minute film based on the award-winning book of the same name by Helen Ward and illustrated by Craste, that tells the story of one small creature's struggle to preserve a world in danger of being lost forever through recklessness and indifference. A crew of 35 people worked in three countries over a two year period to make the film, and an original score by Icelandic composer Johann Johannsson and sound design by Adrian Rhodes complete the picture.
