Yakari, a little Sioux Native American boy, and his faithful steed, Little Thunder, in the great prairie. Yakari has the ability to communicate with all animals, a gift that was transmitted to him by his totem, the Great Eagle.
The tribe's migration is imminent. Yakari the little Sioux leaves the protective circle of his village and heads off into the unknown to follow the trail of Little Thunder, the legendary mustang. Yakari absolutely wants to become the friend of this little horse reputed to be untamable. On the way, Yakari will be visited by Great Eagle, his totem animal, from whom he will receive a superb feather of bravery and a fantastic gift: that of being able to speak with animals. This quest will take the little Sioux across the plains and mountains of the North American continent, passing through the territory of the terrible puma-skin hunters. But how will he find his way back to his tribe? At the end of the journey, the breath of adventure will forever seal the friendship between the bravest of papooses and the mustang faster than the wind. Inspired by the first comic book album, "Yakari et grand-Aigle", by Derib and Job, released fifty years ago, this first feature film of 2020 traces the genesis of this young timeless hero.
A second feature film is in preparation; it will be released on screens in 2026.
