Dark clouds are gathering over the tranquil island of Morrowland, the home of twelve-year-old Jim and his best friend, Luke the Engine Driver. The notorious pirate gang “The Wild 13” has learned that the dragon Mrs. Grindtooth has been conquered by Jim and Luke and now the pirates swear revenge! To protect Morrowland from another threat, the two of them set off with their steam engines Emma and Molly on a dangerous journey where Jim’s most fervent wish might also come true: he wants, at last, to find out the truth about his mysterious origins.
This movie will take you on a wild adventure with magical flying machines, dragons, pirates, mermaids, raging storms and a friendship that will last forever. It’s the perfect movie for the whole family.
