Chronology
Growing up in the Amazon rainforest has given Autumn the rarest of friendships: a lost jaguar cub named Hope. When a tragic event forces Autumn to leave Hope for the unknown of New York City, she dreams of returning to the rainforest and her friend. At 14, accustomed to city life, Autumn discovers that her childhood town is under threat from animal traffickers and decides she must return to the Amazon to reunite with her beloved jaguar. Anja (Emily Bett Rickards), Autumn’s adorably clumsy biology teacher, tries unsuccessfully to dissuade her from her reckless plan. Accompanied by Anja, Autumn sets off on a journey to reconnect with Hope and save her from those who would destroy the rainforest and its wildlife.
