Synopsis
This is a beautifully animated adventure about Maki, a Sudanese boy in the early 19th century who escapes from slave traders to become the protector of Zarafa, an orphaned giraffe who in turn becomes his best friend. Taking up with a band of explorers, pirates, and merchants, young Maki goes on an incredible voyage by sea and air to accompany Zarafa to Paris, where she is to be presented as a gift from the Pasha of Egypt to the King of France. A thrilling adventure, full of humour, interesting characters and exotic locations, as well as a few mildly scary moments and some rude humour.
