Nling is an impenetrable walled slum city whose inhabitants are cut off from the world outside. In this redemption story, animated entirely with paper print outs, a Nlingian man and his best friend Donkey tunnel beneath the wall to find food and alcohol. In his struggle to survive, the man finds that he is no more human than his animal friend.
