Winner, Best Animated Feature Film, 2013
A construction worker and a music student foolishly fiddle with an alien transportation device and are flung to a far-off planet from which they try to find their way home. The planet Pluk is an alien world of sand where a simple match stick is of unbelievable value, and people meet and greet each other by the colour of their pants.
