Synopsis

Hector is a penguin who marches to the beat of his own drum, preferring to explore on land rather than swim and fish with his fellow penguins. Feeling a bit out of place, he wonders if he'll ever truly belong. This charming story follows Hector as he discovers his unique talents and finds his special role in the penguin community.
