Plot

A 15-year-old circus ringmaster Wei-wei is left all alone with gorilla Ling-ling after grandfather passes away. Thanks to her grandfather's love for baseball, Ling-ling was trained to play baseball and has developed remarkable hitting skills.

Sinekatalog’s take

A circus girl and her baseball-playing gorilla team up in a family-friendly sports fable. It is cheerfully far-fetched, and its charm comes from the odd-couple pairing and a clear sentimental streak. Best for younger viewers and those who like their underdog stories sweet.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
