Lovingly brought to life in this beautifully animated series, Aesop is a friendly wolf who writes and directs plays for a travelling theatre group. Among the members of his company are a would-be writer fox, some mischievous pigs and a tough little rabbit. At first, they do not always get along, since they have to live together in a cramped carriage. However, while spending time working together in the theatre they get to know and understand each other better.
