Ernest Mayo is attempting to break the world breath-holding record with the assistance of his best friend and trainer, Barrett. The record has long been held by the deceased Russian athlete, Red Fleet naval officer and amateur dramatist, Nikolai Petrovich. Will Ernest succeed? Will Sally be an unwelcome distraction? Will Barrett spur his protege on to glory? Will Ernest suffer the same fate as Nikolai? How many calories are there in a Quattro Fromage? All these questions will be answered in Canary a new short film by Jack Noddings and Oli Hudson.
