Synopsis

This internationally critically acclaimed and award-winning film combines a children's adventure story with the look and feel of Lawrence of Arabia. At the end of the 19th century two kids - children of engineers working on the Suez Canal - are kidnapped in the heart of the African continent. The children manage to escape from the hands of their captors and embark on a journey across the harsh yet breathtakingly beautiful African landscape. Their great adventure is full of obstacles, dangers, and fun as they pursue their quest to return home.
