About the movie:
MIA AND THE WHITE LION is the heartfelt story of an extraordinary friendship between a young girl and a white lion, and her incredible adventure across the South African savanna to give her best friend a new home. Filmed over the course of three years, MIA AND THE WHITE LION centers on a willful young girl named Mia whose life is turned upside down when her family decides to leave London to manage a lion farm in South Africa. When a beautiful white lion, Charlie, is born, Mia finds happiness once again and develops a special bond with the growing cub. As Charlie grows to full size, Mia uncovers an upsetting secret kept hidden by her father. Distraught that Charlie could be in danger, Mia decides to rescue him. The two friends set out on an incredible journey across the South African savanna in search of a sanctuary where Charlie can live out his life in freedom.

Mia and the White Lion was a great movie that not only shared the story of an albino lion, but also showed that lions in general are being killed and must be saved before they die out in the next twenty years. The movie had lots of funny parts with the animals, and there were also many plot twists and sad moments that helped you relate to Mia’s situation and enjoy the story. I highly recommend this movie.
