Synopsis

Mildred, a precocious child and avid reader, reconnects with her estranged father, an illusionist in his twilight years, in order to prove the existence of a beast from New Zealand's mythology. Despite the fact that camping is not their thing, together they will embark on great adventures. Elijah Wood stars in an endearing and imaginative comedy with a classic aroma that will delight all Taika Waititi fans.
