Summary
In today’s world where “I want to know who I am” has become a universal question, <Albert> is a short animated film that gently reminds us that the journey of self-discovery is not a given, but a deeply earnest process.
Through the story of Albert, a duckling struggling with identity confusion, the animation explores how our surroundings plant seeds of influence within us—and how those memories help us confront and overcome life’s doubts and challenges. Delivered with delicate storytelling and emotional depth, this film offers reflection and healing to modern individuals grappling with identity crises, low self-esteem, and the feeling of losing oneself.
Unlike animations targeted at specific age groups, <Albert> can be enjoyed by both children and adults. For children, it is a charming duck animation; for adults, it offers a quiet yet profound moment of self-reflection. Featuring a duck as the main character, the story transcends age and nationality, making it universally relatable.
The narrative also holds strong potential for OSMU (One Source Multi-Use) and character IP expansion.

"Little beings, deep reflections."
Storythinking Lab heal the world through stories of small, wounded souls. Storythinking Lab is a content studio dedicated to the belief that healing stories can change the world. We create and develop narratives centered on identity, loss, isolation, healing, and reconnection—offering deep emotional resonance and public-minded value.
We don't stop at single works. Our goal is to create sustainable, expandable story IPs that can live and grow across animation, publishing, merchandise, and educational content. Our OSMU (One Source Multi Use) strategy turns stories into experiences, messages into movements.
At the heart of our creative vision lies our “Healing Trilogy”:
Oy
— A misunderstood cucumber who sacrifices herself to heal the world in a quiet act of love.
Albert
— A duckling who grows up questioning his identity, navigating trauma, and seeking his true self.
Caviar Boy
— A fish who endures suffering while working in a fine seafood restaurant to repay the fisherman who once spared him—quietly confronting a society that ignores its own moral blindness.
These three stories go beyond entertainment. They are quiet but powerful reflections on dignity, empathy, and our forgotten ethics.
Storythinking Lab build sustainable story IPs that aim to change the world through empathy. We continues to create, grow, and evolve IP-based narratives that offer healing, insight, and artistic beauty—building a more compassionate world, one story at a time.
