Robin Robin

Robin is a bird raised by a family of mice who can't shake the feeling that she belongs somewhere else. She grows up among whiskered caretakers and tiny routines, forming bonds with Dink and Dad Mouse, while secretly wondering what her true place might be. When a wish for something bigger stirs inside her, she sets off to see the wider world beyond the mouse burrow. Along the way she faces shadows and surprises, makes unlikely friends, and tests her courage and loyalty. The world Robin discovers is bright and dangerous, and she learns to balance courage with caution. Her choices reveal patience and a longing to belong, while the tale blends cozy humor with a gentle message about family.

Directed by Mikey Please and Daniel Ojari, Robin Robin is based on an original story from Please, Sam Morrison and Ojari. The Aardman stop motion short was released in 2021, showcasing the studio's distinctive craft, meticulous puppetry, and warm humor that suits families.

Box office: Robin Robin arrived primarily as a streaming release in 2021. There was no widely reported theatrical run and no publicly disclosed totals, as the film circulated mainly through streaming platforms and festival showings rather than box office numbers.

Audiences and critics praised the film for its warm visuals, inventive stop motion and gentle humor. Its themes of belonging and family feel reassuring for both kids and adults, offering a hopeful message about finding your place without heavy handed sentiment, and celebrating small kindnesses.

As a later entry in the Aardman catalog, Robin Robin adds to the studio's reputation for tactile character work and kid friendly humor. It stands as a polished example of modern stop motion that can spark conversations about identity and home at family movie night, and it demonstrates how thoughtful design and voice acting can carry a story without spectacle.
