Adapted from the bestselling novel by Carole Wilkinson and featuring the voices of Bill Nighy and Bill Bailey, DRAGONKEEPER is an action-packed adventure for the whole family. These are dark times in imperial China. Dragons, once the friends and wise allies of men, have been hunted for years and imprisoned in dungeons. In a remote mountain fortress, a slave girl helps the last of the dragons escape and joins him on a passionate mission to recover the most precious treasure: the last dragon egg, stolen by an evil sorcerer who wants to exploit its magical potential to achieve immortality. Pursued by the Emperor's armies, this strange couple ventures on a journey through ancient China in which both will learn to grow - he, from his millenary wisdom and she, from her youthful inexperience - and to trust each other in order to defeat the fearsome sorcerer, and to ensure the survival of the dragon lineage.
