Quinn is a mouse who sets out to find his own spot in the great forest. A large rainstorm creates a rushing torrent that sweeps him away and leaves him lost and alone, and remembering his father's advice he tries to seek out the Great Elephant for help.

Along the way he meets other forest animals who claim to know about the Great Elephant, and out of desperation he follows some of their advice, only to find he has been led down the wrong path. In his greatest moment of need, will the Great Elephant hear his cry? An illustrated allegory in the time-honored tradition, drawn by animator Nik Ranieri.
