My Penguin Friend is the story of the friendship between a lonely father and a lost little penguin who brings him joy and helps his family find peace through his unwavering loyalty that crosses the ocean.
Humble fisherman Joao (Jean Reno) shut himself off from the world after a tragedy. But when he discovers a penguin swimming alone in an oil-covered ocean, his first instinct is to help. Despite his wife's (Adriana Barrazo) fears, Joao rescues the seabird and takes it under his wing. He names the penguin DinDim and feels joy for the first time in years, not knowing the strong bond that will form between them.
When DinDim suddenly disappears back into the ocean, Joao doesn't believe he'll ever see his friend again. Thousands of kilometers away, however, DinDim encounters problems of his own and decides to use his unique GPS-like abilities to find his way back home.
Based on an emotional true story that traveled the world and was filmed on the spectacular coasts of Brazil and Argentina, My Penguin Friend tells a story about the magic of the ocean, the power of nature and friendship.
