It was quite sad at the beginning, as each of the penguins discovered their 'heartsong' - except for young Mumble. Through no fault of his own, Mumble is different to your standard penguin. He looks different, he acts different, he thinks different.
Even though he ends up being the star of the movie - being more amazing and courageous than any of his fellow ice-dwellers - he is constantly derided by the colony and the penguin "elders" for being different. Or as his own father puts it, he "just ain't penguin".
Couldn't help but think of black box theory.
