A magical tale of loneliness and friendship based on the award-winning book by Oliver Jeffers. One day, a boy finds a penguin on his doorstep and decides to take it home - even if that means rowing all the way to the South Pole! This beautiful film was awarded the BAFTA for children's animation at the 2009 British Academy Children's Awards which celebrate excellence in the art forms of the moving image for children.
