Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Gilles de Maistre is obsessed with human-animal bonds — he also made 'Mia and the White Lion' using the same real-animal approach.
The 'Big Five' name references the five most dangerous African animals to hunt on foot — here reclaimed as protectors, not trophies.
