Appu, the six-year-old mischievous baby elephant, embarks on a courageous quest to find and free his father from the clutches of notorious poachers. His journey is no easy feat; he must brave all odds, cross the vast ocean, traverse a deep, deadly forest, and unlock his true powers to rescue his beloved parent.

Accompanying Appu on this perilous adventure are two unlikely companions:

Tiger, the talkative pet dog with an incredible nose, who refuses to accept that his owners abandoned him.
Neena, an 8-year-old fugitive who escaped from the poacher’s nest. Neena knows the jungle better than anyone, and her determination fuels their mission.

The animated feature film “Appu” serves not only as entertainment but also as a powerful tool to raise awareness about the urgent need for elephant conservation. Did you know that due to poaching, Asian Elephants could disappear forever within 30 years, and African Elephants within less than a decade? Despite a ban on the ivory trade, thousands of elephants are killed for their teeth annually.
