Synopsis

Michelle, the crab, is unlike any of her peers. Michelle struggles with social and sensory issues which are not fully understood. Can the vicious circle of being excluded for being "difficult", which in turn, makes Michelle frustrated and branded as "crabbit", be broken? Can a little awareness and kindness - from both sides - bring them all together as friends?
