The Krostons
Krostons are small evil creatures with supernatural powers. They have been sleeping for centuries in The Book of Krostonius which was locked in a chest, wrapped in chains and buried deep beneath the earth during the Dark Ages. The chest was unearthed by a team of workers breaking ground for McDonald’s fast food restaurant beside a motorway and somehow the Krostons have been awakened in Paris, and more precisely, in the picturesque neighbourhood of Montmartre - their new guardian is a teenage girl who faces the daily challenge of dealing with the pesky little rascals and keeping them hidden from the outside world! This short shows the adventures of the Krostons on a daily trip in the streets of Paris.
