Meet Dave, the last Dodo with an unshakable spirit of optimism, battling for survival in the rough corners of 1628’s London. Alongside him is a clever rat named Eggy, their camaraderie forming the crux of this laughter-filled family film, The Last Dodo.
The creative minds behind this venture include the brilliant team at Cheeky Little Media famed for hit shows like Kangaroo Beach and Vegesaurs and Cantilever Media, the producers of The Amazing Maurice. This international co-production helmed by Patrick Egerton, Andrew Baker, and Carys Rowan amalgamates talent from Australia, the UK, and India.
Simon and Tristan Dodd’s writing, coupled with Jun Falkenstein’s direction, crafts a humorous journey through the bustling streets of London as Dave and Eggy meet some eccentric characters. The Last Dodo evokes a deeper understanding that with persistence, hope, and self-confidence, one can overcome giant obstacles and literally soar high.
Woven through the magical tapestry of the 17th-century backdrop, the film treats the audience with a dose of humor, emotional depth, and an uplifting tale of courage, belonging, and second chances.
The Last Dodo reinterprets the Dodo in a heartwarming and comical buddy tale. This funny, and full-of-heart film, driven by an unexpected duo, will surely win audience’s hearts.
