This week, we feature a quest undertaken by two unlikely friends in a new animated film and revisit 17 Cherry Tree Lane for a sing-along family classic.

New Release

‘Tafiti: Across the Desert’

Tafiti (Cosima Henman), a meerkat, sets out from home to search for a rare flower to cure his grandpa, bitten by a snake. Bristles (Steve Hudson), a bush pig, tags along to show that tasks are easier when shared. As the duo traverse the rugged terrain, they begin to forge a surprising bond.

The trip stays lively with fast pacing, strange encounters, and plenty of humor built around Tafiti’s determination versus Bristles’s happy chaos. It’s an easygoing watch that works well for families and anyone wanting a light animated escape.
