Synopsis Leida and Eve, colleagues with opposite personalities, work side by side at a small town library. During a casual play on words between the two, Leida pridefully claims her wrong answer about Numbats’ habitat. The book that would put an end to the debate is missing from its shelf, so Eve sets off for a stubborn search. The absurd adventure to prove her co-worker wrong takes an unusual turn at the very end.
