One of Disney’s most endearing animated films. Dumbo is the story of a baby circus animal born with oversized ears. Snubbed and ridiculed by all the other circus animals, he is befriended by Timothy, a small but spirited mouse. After Dumbo is involved in several disastrous performances under the big top, Timothy decides to launch Dumbo as a new star - the world’s only flying elephant. Also included in this program are three Disney cartoons: “Father Noah’s ark”, “The Practical pig”, and “Three orphan kittens”.
