Welcome to Binti’s channel! Let’s get it started! Binti dreams of becoming a famous vlogger but her life keeps throwing stones at her. When she meets the nature-loving Elias and his family, things take an unexpected turn. Can she rely on the power of the internet?

Binti is a daring girl who has her own vlog and dreams of fame. Things are not going the way she’d like them to – Binti and her father must leave their home overnight. As they don’t have the legal documents to stay in Belgium, they search for unconventional solutions. They find shelter with Elias and his creative mum. The boy is committed to saving endangered animal species. Even though the kids are totally different, they hit it off immediately and are joined by a common goal. Binti uses the power of the internet to help Elias promote his campaign aimed at saving okapi, his favourite animals. Binti’s problems seem to have no end, but Elias doesn’t need to think twice to protect his friend. But will that be enough? What will happen to Binti and her father? Binti is a multi-award-winning film about friendship, family, and pursuing your dreams. The funny and touching story sends an unexpected message about the power of the internet. It serves as a great illustration of how to spend time creatively with your close ones, even when you do it online.
