Lost and Found + Shoom's Odyssey

Family Film Club

,Cinema 2
A young boy and a penguin peer round a corner

Two beautiful animations that feature daring journeys and unforgettable friendships, plus a special guest filmaker introduction.

Lost and Found, based on the best-selling picture book, is an eventful tale where a boy sets out to return a lost penguin to the North Pole. This gorgeous BAFTA-winning treat from the wonderful Studio AKA follows the pair as they work together to find their way home. 

Followed by the wonderful Shoom’s Odyssey – a French featurette about overcoming the odds, kindness and finding your family. 

When a storm hits a seaside town, the eggs in an Owl’s nest are disturbed and fall to the ground. One of them hatches into a fluffy chick called Shoom, but the other is not quite ready to crack open and it’s up to the eldest bird to find a safe haven.
