"It is a land of myth, magic and the untamed. It is the time of Dar, a dethroned prince with a mystical gift — the unique ability to communicate with wild animals and share their powers. When evil villains destroy his village and kidnap his childhood sweetheart, Kyra, he embarks on a relentless quest to find her and to restore peace to a barbaric land. At his side are his young friend Tao, and his faithful animal companions — Sharak the eagle, Ruh the tiger, and Kodo and Podo, two mischievous ferrets. BeastMaster follows their incredible odyssey into a legendary, mythical realm where anything is possible." Based on the novel "The Beastmaster" by Andre Norton (66x45min)
