The video introduces Lorenz, a two-year-old Indian runner duck living in a manor house owned by Genevieve Carlson. Lorenz is unique due to his upright stance and fear of water, which is unusual for ducks. His fear stems from an unconventional upbringing, as his mother rejected his egg, leading him to hatch under unusual circumstances. Without a mother, Lorenz missed learning essential duck behaviors. He grew up with Genevieve and her pets, struggling to find his identity. Eventually, he found a mentor in Helios, a Labrador retriever, who became the object of his obsession.
