Short description

Separated from her parents when their forest home is destroyed, Ozi is taken in by kind wildlife sanctuary owners who keep her safe and slowly teach her to communicate through sign language. With the combination of her new skills and natural talent for social media, Ozi soon has a worldwide following. When she learns that her parents might be alive, Ozi sets off on a quest to find them and to tell the world what is happening to the rainforest before it’s too late. With help from new friends, cheeky monkey Chance and loveable rhino Honkus, Ozi discovers that one voice really can change the world.

What's left behind the scenes

The filmmakers decided to use the film's poster to draw attention to acute environmental issues. The colorful stripes at its bottom are a color gradient that displays the increase in average annual temperatures from 1853 to 2023. Climate stripes – vertical lines of blue and red shades – help visualize the rate of global warming as the graph transitions from cold to warm tones.
