A heart-warming tale that captured the hearts of audiences across Poland, ranking in the top three most popular Polish films in cinemas last year. Adapted to contemporary times from the renowned book by Roman Pisarski, this modern retelling follows the enchanting adventures of Lampo, a real-life dog in 1950s Italy.
The life of young Zuzia takes on a whole new meaning when the unusual dog-traveller Lampo unexpectedly joins the family. The remarkable white Swiss shepherd, whose train trips become an internet sensation, immediately becomes the best friend of the girl suffering from a serious heart condition. But not everyone shares in Zuzia's admiration of Lampo and his newfound fame. The envious manager of the railway station plots to rid the station of the beloved dog. When he succeeds, Zuzia is left heartbroken and her health begins to decline without Lampo by her side. In a race against time, Zuzia's family and friends rally together to reunite her with the four-legged friend before it's too late.
