Movie description:
A young boy living in a quiet English country village manages to trap in the family stable an African lion that has escaped from a nearby circus. He enlists two of his pals to help him save the lion from an army patrol, who are out to track it down and kill it, by making sure that the owners of the circus are able to come and capture it alive first.
A English boy and his friends attempt to feed an escaped circus lion that they are harbouring. The lion is harmless, but the kids must try to save it from soldiers who have been ordered to find the big cat and slay it on sight. Eventually the soldiers discover the lion in the boy’s barn and prepare to shoot it at the very moment that circus people are rushing to the scene. The boy pleads with his father to order the soldiers off his property, but they refuse to go, and he is forced to risk his own life to protect the animal.
