Kaporito is a small spectacled bear, one of the few bears native to South America. The little bear runs away from evil poachers, who killed his parents. Frightened, Kaporito flees to his burrow, located in the high mountains of the Andean Cordillera. There, he makes friends with some inhabitants of the peasant settlement, where he meets Caribay, a nice and lively indigenous little girl, who knows how to see that the bear has a good heart despite its large size. The little girl helps Kaporito to become the guardian of the mountain, in order to preserve the lives of other defenseless animals and nature.
An animation production that combines traditional hand-drawn animation with characters created by 3D CGI animation. The production team configured a total of 103 characters that were made in a traditional way and then digitized, just as the film has 1,323 backgrounds for the locations. 'Kaporito: The Guardian of the Mountain' has a total of 115,200 frames, in addition to being one of the first Venezuelan animation productions to be a musical, as it has seven original songs.
