Storks: Animation fun that takes a fresh look at the legend that storks bring the children.
Plot and background
“Storks – Adventures in Flight”: Plot
Every child knows where babies come from – the stork, of course. But they have now changed their business model and deliver parcels for a large online mail-order company instead of babies. The son of the manager, Storch Junior (Andy Samberg in the original), not only delivers the best figures, but is soon to take over his father’s inheritance. By mistake, however, he activates the baby-making machine and a cute little red-haired girl is waiting to be delivered to her rightful parents. Together with the only human on Stork Mountain, the orphan girl Tulip (Katie Grown), Junior decides to get rid of the baby as quickly as possible so that his boss doesn’t find out about the misery. The only problem: the two have never delivered a baby before. On their journey, they not only face all kinds of bizarre adventures, but also the search for family and their destiny.
