After years in New York City, 14-year-old Autumn returns to the Amazon rainforest to save her childhood village and her beloved jaguar friend. Spiritual remake of Mia i bijeli lav (2018), an earlier film by Gilles de Maistre. This film is a sweet family film, which will appeal to younger girls. There is not much for parents to do. The plot is predictable and the moral of the story is a bit forced, but I have to be honest: it was a lot of fun to watch with our 6-year-old daughter. The film has almost all the pitfalls of a family film: overacting adults, too wise a child role, thin plot, easily survivable deadly situations, etc. But the main character is well played. The role of the clumsy teacher is not believable (what is she doing there in the jungle?), but it is still well played. And if you like some jungle scenes with waterfalls, you will not be disappointed.
