Tafiti, a lively little meerkat, lives in the vast, sun-drenched savanna of Africa. His grandfather Opapa warns him time and again: The world out there is full of dangers—and meerkats are better off sticking to their own kind. But Tafiti has a mind of his own. When he meets Pinsel, a cheerful and somewhat clumsy brush-eared pig, everything changes. When Opapa is bitten by a poisonous snake, Tafiti embarks on the greatest adventure of his life: Only a rare blue flower growing beyond the desert can save him. Although Tafiti promises to stay away from other animals in the future, Pinsel won’t leave him alone. Together, the two set off on a journey through scorching deserts, past wild animals and major challenges.

Based on the successful children’s book series, Tafiti comes to the big screen—a heartwarming desert adventure about courage, solidarity, and the magic of true friendship—told with plenty of humor and heart.

The lively Nina grows up in a creative family—her father works as a filmmaker, while her brother loves to perform magic tricks. She herself dreams of becoming a writer. With the help of her quirky neighbor, she ventures into writing her first story and becomes the main character herself in the process.
