The beautiful lake of Loch Ness, overlooked by the ruins of Urquhart Castle, has become a highly attractive holiday destination. Local fisherman, Mylo, who claims to have been attacked by the sea creature, runs a Loch Ness Monster tourist show on the banks of the loch. His teenage daughter, Kellina, doesn’t believe his stories, nor does she believe in any of the myths of Loch Ness … but that all changes when she meets an actual, young Nessie named Fin. And so begins a tale of friendship and caution, loyalty and betrayal, fun and breathtaking adventure as the pair team up to uncover the sea creature’s family secrets hidden in the water’s depths.
NESSIE JUNIOR is an exciting, unique, and entertaining high-end CGI-animated movie based on the tale of the Loch Ness Monster, the mythical creature that has for centuries enchanted travelers and sightseers to the Scottish Highlands.
