“Piper” tells the story of a hungry sandpiper hatchling who ventures from her nest for the first time to dig for food by the shoreline. The only problem is, the food is buried beneath the sand where scary waves roll up onto the shore.

If you missed this charming animated short played before the theatrical releases of Finding Dory (2016), here’s your chance. Not only is it an adorable story, but the style of digital character rendering is truly remarkable. To tell you the truth, (although I have nothing against fish adventures) this is the story that stayed with me.
