Codfish Dan is a folk hero. One night, he went fishing on the Milky Way, and the results of that legendary catch are still making Newfoundland history. Moon Man is a stereoscopic animated short from Paul Morstad inspired by the song "Moon Man Newfie," composed and sung by Canadian music legend Stompin' Tom Connors.

Moon Man is the National Film Board of Canada's second animation film using the revolutionary IMAX SANDDETM digital system, which enables animators to draw and animate 3D images in space with a moving wand.
