About the film
Little dinosaur Diplodocus dreams of a real adventure above all else. But his overly caring parents value safety above all else, so they built a protective wall around their jungle home and strictly forbade him from going beyond it.
But one day everything changes: his parents disappear in a mysterious white fog, and Diplodocus sets off in search of them. On this great journey, he will be accompanied by a wizard and two eccentric scientists, and along the way, they will encounter fantastic creatures and amazing places.
reasons to watch
This is a warm and slightly nutty adventure comedy for the whole family, which critics compare with the best works of the Pixar studio. The work of Tadeusz Baranowski, an iconic author of Polish comics of the 1980s, inspires the film. The soundtrack for the cartoon was written by Mikołaj Strojinski, a video game composer and the author of the music for the legendary game, The Witcher 3.
