“Oddball” is an extraordinary story based on true events about a dog who saved penguins on an island off the coast of Australia.

The penguins may lose their lives, while the guards working there may lose their jobs.

Help comes completely unexpectedly from his sheepdog, who until then had specialized in mischief and could not even manage to guard the chickens.
