A donkey, a dog, a cat, and a rooster are all cast out by their owners for being old and worthless. When the animals meet, they decide to go to Bremen, and to form a musical group: The Bremen Town Musicians. However, on the way they come across a group of robbers, who are living in a warm, comfortable house. Will the animals move on to Bremen, or will they try to scare away the robbers and take the house for their own? Either way, the most important thing is to stay together.
