Footrot Flats: The Dog’s Tale
Including the figures out of Murray Ball’s “Footrot Flats”, (New Zealands most treasured regional animation strip ). Questions to be answered include: Can Wal Footrot win the affections of both Cheeky Hobson within the sleazy Spit Murphy? Will the Dog win the affections of the beautiful Jess? Can Wal create a fantastic opinion about the All Black selectors in Saturdays soccer match? Could Rangi and Pongo rescue Cooch’s prize stag in the depths of Blackwater channel, home of the Murphy’s, their vicious dogs and mortal croco-pigs? All of this and much more will be answered as the little city of Raupo has been life to the large screen.
