7-year-old Anna is having trouble sleeping at night. She accidentally left her favourite doll, Sophie, at her family’s holiday home, and Anna’s parents won’t drive all the way to the house to retrieve the doll. Just as Anna is wondering if Sophie feels lonely, she suddenly hears a strange sound. Anna is visited by a small yellow aeroplane named Zanzibar along with its crew: Captain Bimse and the co-pilot Goggeletten. With her trusted teddy bear Mr. Johnson in tow, Anna embarks on a magical rescue mission with Captain Bimse and Goggeletten to save Sophie.

| Comment | The film is an adaptation of a children’s book by Bjarne Reuter, mixing live action, puppets and animated backgrounds. The two co-directors both have a background in animation and visual effects. Their credits include ’Jewel of the Desert’ (2001) and ’Sunshine Barry & the Disco Worms’ (2008), both of which Nielsen directed. |
