Mia and the White Lion

Ten-year-old Mia Owen’s world is completely transformed when her family decides to leave their home in London to take over a lion farm in Africa. Here, a special bond blossoms between Mia and a magnificent white lion cub named Charlie, who brings joy back into her life after their move.

As Charlie grows, he becomes too large for the household, prompting Mia’s father, John Owen, to make the difficult decision to keep him in an enclosure, away from human interaction. Unfortunately, when Mia’s brother, Mick Owen, is injured during one of their encounters, Mia’s parents impose strict rules, forbidding her from seeing Charlie again. They threaten to sell him for money if she disobeys. Yet, driven by her love for Charlie, Mia defies her father’s orders, leading to heartbreaking revelations; she learns that the farm is involved in selling lions to trophy hunters for profit.

Determined to save Charlie from this horrifying fate, Mia embarks on a daring journey across South Africa, hoping to release him into the Timbavati Game Reserve, a sanctuary for white lions. However, danger looms as a relentless trophy hunter named Dirk, who is in cahoots with John, has set his sights on capturing Charlie for himself. As Mia’s family pursues them, their actions also draw the attention of the authorities, who wish to prevent Mia from facing consequences for harboring a “dangerous predator.”

Upon reaching the Timbavati Game Reserve, Mia’s escape takes a dire turn as Dirk and his companion ambush her and Charlie. In a brave moment, Charlie attacks Dirk, allowing Mia to flee with him. Just as law enforcement arrives to apprehend Charlie, they find that he is now safe within the protective bounds of the reserve. Time passes, and during a subsequent visit to the Timbavati Game Reserve, Mia and her family are overjoyed to see Charlie thriving—he has mated with a lioness and has welcomed a new family of cubs into the world.
