Every morning Oshima goes off fishing in his little tub boat. He hopes he will catch a really big fish... But he never does. Maybe it is because Oshima's pet frog, Ito, is always playing tricks! Or maybe Oshima is just too busy day-dreaming about what it must be like under the Big Sea. One day Oshima has a big adventure and gets the chance to find out! A simple, uplifting tale about kindness and trusting the unknown with lovingly-made puppets and engaging performances.
