Goldfish

A modern fable in an enchanting underwater world

One day, Al Capone Fish was in Oyster’s shop. When Oyster wasn’t paying attention for a moment, he snatched a euro from the counter. Quickly, Al Capone Fish swam outside...

This is the beginning of a euro’s journey, which passes from fin to fin in a little village at the bottom of the ocean. The criminal fish who live there try to make some profit from it, and the euro is sold on for higher and higher prices. But eventually the coin ends up with the cheerful, good-natured Goldfish, the only one who doesn’t seem to care too much about money.
