Synopsis
A rooster, cat, dog, and donkey are all aging and face the problem of becoming useless to society. Joining forces, they embark on a journey to wander and sing together. Though they are not good enough to become the Bremen town musicians, they find a purpose in life when they drive a robber out of town. Based on a Brothers Grimm fairy tale.
