Nick Newman

    La pasión de Nick Newman por la naturaleza, cultivada a lo largo de su vida y perfeccionada inicialmente en su carrera con caballos de carreras en el Reino Unido, dio un giro inesperado al calificar como Guía de Campo en Sudáfrica. Allí, encontró una profunda satisfacción trabajando en la sabana africana. Su vida cambió irrevocablemente al tener la rara oportunidad de monitorear rinocerontes negros durante un pico crítico en la crisis de la caza furtiva. Ahora, Newman siente un profundo deber de compartir sus experiencias de primera línea, prestando su voz para apoyar a los conservacionistas y crear conciencia global sobre la difícil situación de estos animales en peligro de extinción.

      It's the night before Gromit's birthday, and Wallace is in the shed planning a surprise: a party with lots of balloons and home-brewed cheese. It's a surprise, alright, when Wallace goes overboard with the helium, and the shed disappears into orbit where zero gravity makes the Home Brew Cheese Kit go into hyperdrive. Soon, Mr. Patel's greenhouse suffers a close encounter of the direct-hit kind and, with West Wallaby Street facing its very own "Edamgeddon," Wallace assembles a crack team to journey into the unknown. Thus, man and dog blast off into space, and with First Knitting Officer Wendolene and Bill "Cheesy" Cheeseman also aboard, Crackers in Space may be Wallace & Gromit's cheesiest mission yet.

      Set in a secluded walled garden, two elderly sisters live by their late mother's strict almanac, believing that isolation is their only path to survival. Their self-sufficient existence is disrupted by the arrival of a young boy, who challenges their perceptions of safety and truth. As one sister clings to their mother's teachings, the other yearns for a different life, leading to a tension between tradition and the allure of the unknown. The boy's true nature adds an unsettling layer to their already fragile world.
