'Pigeon: Impossible' is an animated short about a rookie CIA agent on his very first field assignment. The film opens on a cozy street in Washington D.C. as Walter Beckett, our bumbling hero, receives a high tech spy briefcase. Trouble begins when a curious pigeon gets trapped inside the gadget-ridden briefcase and begins to wreak havoc on Walter and nearby pedestrians. The chaos is nearly halted by our hero, until the pigeon manages to hit one last control, launching a nuclear missile that Walter must stop before it reaches its destination. The film was created for virtually no budget by a small team in Austin, Texas and took nearly five years to complete.
