Tonic: The Legend Of Woolly Creek

Tonic is a stop-motion animated film, written, designed, & animated by Kevin Vasconcellos, with original music composed by Jeff Kurtenacker. It tells the story of a young miner named Tom, and his struggle to overcome his insecurities & lack of confidence that are preventing him from meeting the women he admires from afar. This story is framed around the Colorado folktale about the fur-bearing trout, which says that trout started growing hair after a salesman dropped a few bottles of hair tonic into a river.
