The animals of Ferry Lane Farm work hard, but an old cat, dipsy dog, limping donkey and diva cockerel feel differently to the rest. When the farmers threaten to get rid of them at the market they sneak off to watch the circus of Bremen which is in danger of being destroyed by the corporate supermarket chain Shedco’s who want to build a new supermarket on their land. The farm animals, rejected by their friends and owners, decide to run away and join the Circus, but it has already left to travel around the world to rally support against Mr Shedco. The animals decide to follow them to Kentucky, the Arctic and finally back to Bremen. But is it too late for the Circus and the animals?
