Barnyard
The secret lives of animals revealed!
Directed by Steve Oedekerk
Produced by O Entertainment, Nickelodeon Movies
A colorful family comedy about a carefree farm cow learning responsibility after his father's death, balancing mischievous fun with genuine emotional growth.
Otis is a mischievous, carefree Holstein cow who lives on a farm where, unbeknownst to humans, the animals are anthropomorphic. He prefers having fun with his best friends: Pip the mouse, Freddy the ferret, Peck the rooster, and Pig the pig - rather than following strict rules and accepting responsibility. But when his adoptive father is killed in a coyote attack, he has a heavy responsibility thrust upon him to become leader of his farm home's community.
