Who Says the Duckling Is Ugly? | A 3D Animated Story About Differences and Kindness

The little duck tried to shorten his steps, hide his long neck, and flatten his soft gray feathers — simply because a thoughtless nickname made him believe that he had to become someone else.
After leaving his pond, he meets friends who never ask him to explain himself or demand that he change. Years later, when he returns, he realizes that he does not need to erase his past — he only needs to leave behind the word “ugly” that others had placed upon him.
“WHO SAID THE LITTLE DUCK WAS UGLY?” is a gentle 3D animated film, freely inspired by the classic fairy tale “The Ugly Duckling.” It is a story about being different, the power of words, kindness, forgiveness, and the courage to be yourself.
You don’t have to become someone else to be loved.
