Rock-A-Doodle (1991)

Chanticleer is a foolhardy farm rooster who believes his crows can actually make the sun come up and shine. When the sun rises one morning without Chanticleer's crow, he leaves the farm in disgrace and runs off to become a rock 'n' roll singer. But in his absence, a sinister, sunshine-hating owl prepares to take over.

In Rock-A-Doodle, consciousness is carried by animals — a plane of “anthropomorphic farm”. The story fights on E9/E10 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing prejudice, authority, identity, power.
