Kensuke's Kingdom
Eleven-year-old Michael is stranded on an island with his dog after a storm, where he meets the mysterious Kensuke. An adventure film that will captivate both children and adults.
During a violent storm, young Michael and his dog are swept overboard. They wash up on a remote island in the Indian Ocean, far from everything he knows. Michael soon discovers he is not alone: the island is home to Kensuke, a quiet and reclusive Japanese man. He lives in harmony with nature and a group of orangutans, and wants to be left in peace. Nonetheless, an extraordinary friendship develops between Michael and Kensuke. When their peaceful life is threatened by dangerous poachers, Michael and Kensuke must work together to protect their unique world.
Directors Neil Boyle and Kirk Hendry bring Michael Morpurgo’s beloved children’s book to life in a beautiful and heartwarming family adventure. Kensuke’s Kingdom blends classic adventure with a message about connection and responsibility – for each other and for nature.
