Short description

In a time when dinosaurs rule the Earth, the smallest dinosaur of the herd, a playful Pachyrhinosaurus named Patchi, embarks on the biggest adventure of his life. As he tries to find his place in a spectacular world filled with fun-loving friends and a few dangerous foes, Patchi will discover the courage he needs to become the leader of the herd and a hero for the ages.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Animator-director Marco Marenghi also worked as an animator on the original series “BBC: Walking with Dinosaurs” (1999).
  • Although the fact that small predatory dinosaurs had feathers was known since the late nineties, this is one of the first films to show such dinosaurs. The first film to show feathered predators was “Jurassic Park III” (2001). Feathers may also have appeared in the cartoon “Dinosaur” (2000), but budget constraints and the animation capabilities at the time forced the creators to abandon this idea.
  • The Tyrannosaurs in this film are scaly because their models were made before the discovery of the giant feathered Yutyrannus.
  • A study published in December 2013, just days before the film's release, suggests that edmontosaurs had something akin to a "fleshy beard" or crest on their heads. The models in the film naturally lack this detail.
