Kukeleku

About This Movie

Kukeleku is an intriguing blend of animation that plays with themes of identity and deception. It follows Nugget, a voiceless rooster, who stumbles upon a squeaky toy and uses it to fake his crowing and seize a throne. The atmosphere is whimsical yet carries an undercurrent of tension as Nugget navigates the complexities of his new role. The pacing feels just right, allowing moments of levity to breathe while also ramping up the stakes. The animation style has a unique charm, with a tactile feel that makes the characters leap off the screen. While the director is still unknown, the performances of the animated cast really draw you in, especially Nugget’s silent expressions which pack quite the emotional punch.
