Synopsis

An elderly storyteller tells five adventures about Kirikou, his playful and clever grandson. The boy’s great resourcefulness leads him to rescue a grumpy old man from the clutches of a hungry hyena and to help a cantankerous neighbor rebuild her home after a fire. Kirikou also learns about the magical powers of music and finds an unexpected ally in a wandering African storyteller who brings her storytelling gifts from village to village.
