Bibopalula. Adventure in the Atlantic

The warning signs are mounting. Bad news reaches the forest: melting northern ice, southern jungles in peril, and polluted oceans. The birds of the world fear for their homes. A global appeal is needed so that Those Who Do Not Fly finally open their eyes, and their ears. The plan? To organize the greatest concert in history. Legendary musicians from across the globe are invited to the forest to strike a chord for the planet. However, Pombo, a scatterbrained messenger pigeon, forgot to deliver the invitations. Now, the Forest Band must embark on a journey aboard the Titanic, Captain Pelican’s legendary log, to find the greats: Bjorkina in the Great North, Trío Zopilote in the Mississippi, and the Bichotas in the Caribbean. It won’t be easy. They must face frozen instruments, seas choked with plastic, and fierce Atlantic storms. Even within the band, egos and fears arise. Will they make it back? Will the world finally hear the greatest song for survival?

Director’s statement
This is an adventure film following a group of friends on a mission across the sea. Aimed at children, it uses a mischievous, optimistic comedic tone to deliver a story rooted in environmental commitment and music. More than a musical, music is the narrative engine and the characters' greatest strength.
The protagonists are four birds from an Atlantic forest, a pop group known as the Forest Band. Like a feathered version of the Beatles, they rehearse and compose together, embodying a classic garage-band spirit. Their mission? To recruit the world’s greatest musicians for a historic concert, echoing the quest of The Blues Brothers.
The film is ""culturally literate,"" referencing Björk, Delta Blues, and Caribbean reggaeton to engage parents too. While it carries a strong sustainability message, it avoids lecturing, choosing instead to showcase the beauty of global diversity. Visually, the film draws inspiration from Miyazaki’s Porco Rosso to capture the majesty of the sea and sky.
