Trail of the Panda 熊猫回家路



I am so looking forward to this film - Trail of the Panda 熊猫回家路. This Disney film arrived at Chinese screens on May 8. It's already on GV's "Coming Soon" list here in Singapore so hopefully, it'll be real soon that we get to watch it!

Set against the spectacular scenery of Siguniang Mountain, Balang Mountain and Wolong Giant Panda Nature Reserve in Sichuan Province, the film's central character is an orphan named Lu, who finds a lost panda cub (Pang Pang), carries his new friend on his back and starts a thrilling trip to return it to its mother.

The May 12 Sichuan earthquake last year killed panda Mao Mao, who played Pang Pang's mother. Wolong itself was nearly destroyed by the quake and is still being rebuilt. All the six pandas who played Pang Pang are safe and have been relocated to zoos and reserves around China.
