His story became a legend. His adventure is one you’ll never forget.
Based on an inspiring true story, this mid 90s animated adventure follows a stray Alaskan wolf-dog named Balto (voiced by Kevin Bacon), who is sent on a perilous winter journey to deliver life-saving medicine to the residents of a remote town hundreds of miles away.
This family film has been hand-picked for the October half-term WayWord Festival by the Storyhouse Young Programmers, who have curated a week of their favourite book-to-screen children’s stories. Each film centres around the theme of animals, featuring a mix of literary classics and hidden gems.
Please note: Family screenings are intended for children aged under 16. Adults can only attend if accompanying a child.
