The Penguin Lessons
Starring Oscar nominee Steve Coogan, this poignant dramedy follows an Englishman’s personal and political awakening after he adopts a penguin during a cataclysmic period in Argentine history. Inspired by true events, "The Penguin Lessons" takes to heart the notion that saving someone’s life begins a new responsibility. In this case, that someone is a surprisingly wise, utterly adorable penguin. Helmed by Peter Cattaneo (The Full Monty; Military Wives), "The Penguin Lessons" delivers this delightful story with wit, warmth and subtle insight into just how rewarding it can be to do the right thing.
