Laura is a speedy pre-teen Mexican sloth, whose family is left devastated after a destructive storm rips through their home and completely destroys it, leaving them without anywhere to live. As the only things they have left are their battered and rusty food truck and the family recipe book, the sloths decide to take a risk and settle down in Sanctuary City in the hope that their delicious food business will attract enough customers to allow them a fresh start. However, when their success attracts the attentions of a cunning jaguar and entrepreneur named Dotti Pace, the sloths find themselves embroiled in a fight to reclaim their business and retrieve their precious recipe book. A timely and accessible animated story of assimilation, appropriation and cultural acceptance that young children will have no trouble following.
