Naman Ramachandran Animation studio Toonz Media Group has unveiled an eclectic slate for the Cannes Film Market. Drawing stories from popular Indian ancient fables and retelling them with a contemporary flavor, “Return of the Jungle” is set in present-day India and revolves around a group of classmates from junior school who must outwit the biggest, meanest bully in the school.
A cool and loveable grandpa by their side peps the fourth graders with inspiring stories from the jungle. The animated feature film comprises two interwoven plots – a real world featuring children and their challenges; and a jungle world featuring animals facing similar adversities – and these worlds magically meet to inspire each other.
Produced by Vaibhav Studios (Emmy nominated “Lamput”), the film is directed by Vaibhav Kumaresh. “Return of the Jungle” will be screened at the market in partnership with India’s National Film Development Corporation.
Toonz represents global rights excluding India. Also on the slate is Santiago Segura’s “G.O.A.T (Greatest Of All Time),” produced by Lola Escena and Toonz, where soccer legends Pelé and Diego Maradona are resurrected to settle the G.O.A.T.
